Moravian COLOR CCD camera G3-11000 - Sensor: D=43.62mm - 9µm - no filter wheel

Moravian colour CCD full-frame size camera with modern KAI-11002 sensor. Connecting thread and filter wheel are optional.

Moravian G3-11000 Color CCD Camera
The G3-11000 CCD cameras from Moravian offer very good performance with almost all amateur telescopes for astrophotography. With 44 mm diameter, the camera can be used quite well with stable 2" focusers and corresponding correctors. The resolution with 11MPx and 9 µm pixel size allows imaging of relatively fine object details and a very large image field at the same time. The G3-11000 is an outstanding camera for virtually all amateur telescopes.

Configure your Moravian camera via the CUSTOMIZE YOUR PRODUCT list
Here you can decide which connection adapter etc. you want.

Features and advantages of the G3-11000 cameras:

•  Easy adaption to the telescope or the telephoto lens - suitable adapters can be found in the accessories section.
•  Full-frame sensor - image field like with 35mm cameras
•  Mechanical shutter (optimal for darks)
•  2-stage Peltier cooling upt to 45 °C below ambient
•  Exposure time from 200 ms to any longer time
•  Camera sensor KAI-11002 with high sensitivity (quantum efficiency up to 40% - good sensitivity also in the red spectral range)
•  Classic aspect ratio 36.3 x 24.2 mm or 3:2 - for fine illumination also with 2" connection

Adaption to the telescope:
The G3-11000 colour camera is delivered with M68x1 (Zeiss level) connection at the telescope side, if you don´t choose an adapter from the options list. The distance of the female M68 thread to the camera sensor is 30.5 mm.

Use of an off-axis guider: Now you can adapt a suitable off-axis guider. We recommend the TSOAGM68 which directly fits to the popular M68 thread of the camera. If you have an M48 connection at the telescope side, we recommend the TSOAG16 off-axis guider.

Difference Sensor Class 1 and Class 2
In general, the results will not differ after subtraction of the darks and bias. The defects (hot pixels, clusters ...) cen be removed by suitable DARKS.

Class 1:

•  Less than 2000 hot pixels
•  Less than 40 clusters (regions with adjacent pixels)
•  No column errors (columns - with more than 10 pixels)

Class 2:

•  Less than 2000 hot pixels
•  Less than 40 clusters (regions with adjacent pixels)
•  Less than 15 column errors (columns - with more than 10 pixels)

In the box:

• Transport case with matching foam inserts
•  SIMS Software
•  Camera head
•  Connection adapter (if not chosen, we deliver M68)
•  Power supply with approx. 1.8 m cable
•  USB 2.0 cable, approx. 5 m
•  CD-ROM with all drivers and manuals
•  Printed manual
