ZWO ASI 290MM Mini USB 2.0 CCD Camera

The ZWO 290MM Mini CCD camera is a compact and accurate solution for planetary and solar self-guidance and imaging. The precision of the monochrome IMX 290 sensor detects more bright spots and stars in the sky, an essential characteristic for good guidance , even in short exposures.
The camera resolution is 1936x1096 or 2.1mpx and the pixel size is 2.9 microns.
It incorporates a standard ST4 port and USB 2.0 with 2m cable. It also incorporates a T2 M42 inlet thread, then a converter goes from this thread to 31.7mm for the filter cap.
The CD with the corresponding software and drives for the use of the Camera are also provided. The ASCOM driver for this camera is available. However, it requires the prior installation of the ZWO SDK (Software Development Kit), downloadable free of charge on its website.
