Free shipping does not apply to international orders. During check-out, you will be presented with several shipping choices and costs. However, the export of some items may be restricted outside the US due to size or manufacturer restrictions.
The ASI715MC is a sensitive color camera with a 1/2.8" sensor and 8.46 megapixel resolution. With Sony's STARVIS technology, this camera has low readout noise (0.72e) and ultra-high sensitivity, making it ideal for astronomical imaging of the planets and smaller deep-sky objects and also for microscopic photography.
High Transmission Speed
The camera is equipped with a USB 3.0 transmission interface and a built-in 256MB DDR cache to ensure stable and secure data transmission.
USB 3.0 Port & ST Guide
USB3.0 Port: Provides 5Gb bandwith to allow ASI715MC to run at 45.1fps (10bit, high speed mode).
ST4 Port: Can be used to connect with the auto guide port of mount for guiding.
Readout Noise
Readout noise includes pixel noise, circuit noise, and ADC quantization noise. The lower the readout noise, the better.
The readout noise of the ASI715MC is very low. As the gain value goes high, the readout noise goes down.
Quantum Effiiciency
The QE curve and readout noise are very important parameters to measure the camera's performance. Higher QE and lower readout noise are necessary to improve the image signal-to-noise ratio. The QE peak value of ASI715MC is estimated to be about 80%.
