- Captures the entire frame at once to eliminate rolling shutter artifacts, delivering distortion-free images
- Combines a back-illuminated sensor with a built-in IR-cut filter, capturing faint deep-sky details without clipping bright star cores
- Uses dual-stage cooling to freeze sensor up to 42°C below ambient temperature, reducing thermal noise during long exposures
- Prevent condensation buildup on humid nights with the adjustable power levels built-in dew heater
ToupTek ATR Series DeepSky Astrophotography Camera!
ATR183C has a resolution of 5440x3648, 2.4μm square pixels, 1-inch optical format, and supports binning mode. The camera equips with two-stage TEC cooling system with excellent effect (cooling temperature deviation can be controlled within 0.1℃), dew prevention heater (window heating), built-in 12-bit ADC, 15ke full well, supports high frame rate mode (8.6 fps@12 bit /17 fps@8 bit RAW).
Please note: all ToupTek Astro DSO cooled cameras can only be powered by 12V3A DC power supply. We recommend using the power adapter that comes with the camera or a lithium-ion battery with stable output of 11-14V. Please do not use power supplies that have falsely stated specifications or unstable outputs to power the camera, as this may affect image capture or even damage the camera.




Sensor Specifications
ATR183C features Sony IMX183 1-inch Square Optical Format
Resolution: 5440*3648
Pixel Size: 2.4μm*2.4μm
Image Area: 13.06mmx8.76mm,
Diagonal: 15.72mm


Fast DDR3 Memory
ATR183C camera has a 512MB (4Gb) ultra-fast memory buffer to ensure stable image transmission


TEC cooling system
ATR183C is designed with an integrated heat dissipation structure and an efficient cooling module. The cooling system of ATR183C features a two-stage Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) with controllable electric fan assisting in heat dissipation. This allows the image sensor to operate at temperatures up to 42 degrees Celsius lower than the ambient temperature. The exposure time can be set for up to 1 hour, ensuring that every minute detail is captured. Even in summer, it can still run stably all night with cooling temperatures ranging from of -5°C to -10°C.


ATR183CZero Amp-Glow
ATR183C has been carefully designed and is able to achieve zero amp-glow photo shooting. This not only greatly reduces the generation of internal glow, but also effectively suppresses the interference of external light. It also enhances the stability and durability of the camera, which means you'll be able to capture sharper, cleaner images in both long and high exposure modes.


Anti-dew technology
ATR183C adopts the new anti-dew technology , which can effectively solve the condensation problem through heating. This heating function consumes about 5 watts, which can be turned off via software to save power.
Additionally, the dew heater on the protective window has four adjustable levels. Users can choose the heating power that best suits their needs.
