The
383L + monochrome camera is one of the best-
performing mid-range CCD cameras on the market. It highlights its
Kodak KAF-8300 high sensitivity
CCD sensor with 8mpx and
pixel measurement
of 5.4 micrometers .
The
noise level
is very low , 7 electrons, almost on par with Sony's CCD sensors. It has a very significant
linear correlation , which makes it very suitable for
very sensitive photometric measurements.
It has a very efficient
refrigeration system capable of lowering the temperature by 40ºC, especially in
long exposures . Its compact design allows it to adapt to multiple telescopes, and you work with a wide range of filters for
planetary and deep sky photography.
