ToupTek G3CMOS: Fan-cooling Planetary Camera!
Unlock breathtaking celestial clarity with the ToupTek G3CMOS06300KMA Mono Camera, a high-performance imaging solution powered by the ultra-sensitive Sony IMX178 mono CMOS sensor. Delivering razor-sharp, 4K Ultra-HD resolution 3072x2048 paired with fine 2.4 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 G3178M 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.
Sony Sensor
Featuring a high-performance 1.2-inch optical format, this camera is equipped with the premium Sony IMX178M CMOS sensor, boasting an expansive 18.86 mm diagonal that yields a wide celestial field of view. It delivers stunning, high-density 4K Ultra-HD imaging across a sharp 3072x2048 resolution grid, revealing intricate details in planetaries and deep-sky structures alike. Furthermore, its finely tuned 2.4 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 & Pixel Binning Technology
The ToupTek G3178M 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.
