ToupTek G3CMOS: Fan-cooling Planetary Camera!
Unlock breathtaking celestial clarity with the ToupTek G3174M Mono Camera, a high-performance imaging solution powered by the ultra-sensitive Sony IMX174 CMOS sensor. Delivering razor-sharp, 4K Ultra-HD resolution 1936x1216 paired with fine 5.86 µm pixels, this camera strikes the perfect balance between intricate detail and incredible light-gathering efficiency. Designed to conquer both planetary tracking and deep-sky exploration. Backed by built-in fan-assisted hybrid cooling to keep thermal noise at bay and a blazing fast USB 3.0 interface for smooth frame rates, the G3174M offers premium, low-noise performance at an unbeatable value—making it an essential upgrade for any astrophotographer's arsenal.
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.
1.2-inch Sony Sensor
Featuring a high-performance 1.2-inch optical format, this camera is equipped with the premium Sony IMX174M CMOS sensor, boasting 13.34 mm diagonal that yields a wide celestial field of view. It delivers stunning, high-density 4K Ultra-HD imaging across a sharp 1936x1216 resolution grid, revealing intricate details in planetaries and deep-sky structures alike. Furthermore, its finely tuned 5.86 µm pixels provide the ideal balance between high spatial resolution and excellent light-gathering efficiency, ensuring low-noise, clean data for breathtaking astrophotography results.
Fast DDR3 Buffer
The ToupTek G3174M features 512MB (4Gb) DDR3 cache, helping maintain data transmission stability and effectively reducing amp-glow phenomena, as image data can be buffered without rushing to send data to the receiving end.
Spectral Response
This sensor maintains an exceptionally high relative response across the deep-red and near-infrared spectrum, retaining a 75% response at 700nm and nearly 60% response at 750nm. This makes it an great choice for astrophotographers utilizing specialized NIR-pass filters to cut through atmospheric turbulence (seeing conditions) or for capturing rich planetary details on targets like Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars.
