ZWO ASI1600GT - cooled monochrome CMOS Camera for Astrophotography

ASI cameras stand for a very good processing and have modern CMOS sensors installed. The cameras of the ASI1600 series are almost a legend. The ultra-modern Panasonic CMOS sensor convinces by a very high sensitivity with very little noise at the same time.

The integrated electronic filter wheel
The filter wheel offers space for 5 filters. The filter wheel accommodates mounted 1.25" filters and unmounted 31 mm filters.

Advantages and product features of the ASI 1600GT monochrome camera:

USB 3.0 for fast download - can also be used with USB 2.0
DDR3 memory buffer for stable data transfer with USB2.0 - minimizes amplifier glow caused by slower data transfer with USB2.0.
Powerful Peltier cooling up to 45 °C below ambient conditions
Sensitive 21.9 mm diagonal CMOS sensor - 16 megapixels
High resolution by 3,8 µm pixels
Supplied with AR clear glass filter - full aperture also in infrared. If the IR is to be blocked, an IR cut filter is required.
Distance T2 connection thread (female thread) to camera sensor: 26.5 mm
High sensitivity - QE over 60% - ideal astronomy camera for low-light objects
12-bit ADC

Application areas of the camera:

Deep-sky images (nebulae and galaxies): due to the high sensitivity, nebulae and galaxies are imaged after only a few seconds. The camera can be cooled up to 45 °C below ambient temperature. This further reduces the already low noise. By raising the GAIN (similar to the ISO setting for digital SLR cameras), you can reduce exposure times to less than 30 seconds. Effects caused by air turbulence or inaccuracies in the tracking are thus eliminated.
Moon and planetary images: extremely short exposure times due to high sensitivity freeze the air turbulence. Due to the high resolution of the sensor, many details can be imaged even with a shorter telescope focal length. Video astronomy is also possible.
