Player One Astronomy Uranus-C USB3.0 Color Planetary Camera (IMX585)

High-resolution planetary camera Player One Astronomy Uranus-C USB3.0 Color (IMX585). The Uranus-C (IMX585) color planetary camera is developed by Player One Astronomy, featuring the Sony IMX585 1/1.2” sensor. The pixel size is 2.9 µm, allowing for a full well of 38.8k e- with a total of 8.3 MPx (the resolution is 3856*2180), and the diagonal is 12.85 mm. STARVIS 2 Non-Amp-Glow Technology. The biggest surprise of the Uranus-C (IMX585) camera is its completely "dark" dark frame. Also very good for lunar and planetary imaging. QE Curve: Performance. Passive Cooling System. Player One adds a new feature called Passive Cooling System to conduct heat from the sensor to the outside. 2nd Gen - Sensor Tilt Plate. On Player One Astronomy planetary cameras, it is possible to adjust the front plate. 256M DDR3 Memory. Player One Astronomy cameras are the first to use DDR3 memory! This helps stabilize and secure data transmission, effectively avoids frame loss, and significantly reduces read noise. With DDR3 memory, the camera no longer has high processing requirements and will still have excellent performance even when connected to a USB 2.0 port. DPS Technology. Player One Astronomy cameras possess DPS (Dead Pixel Suppression) technology. DPS analyzes many dark frames to find abnormal pixels. All dead pixels in the image (including both hot and cold pixels) are wiped away. The DPS function is active throughout the entire imaging session. Overvoltage and overcurrent protection mechanism. Player One cameras ensure the safety of their cameras and equipment through an overvoltage and overcurrent protection mechanism. Data Port. When the camera is connected to the USB3.0 port and full-resolution preview is used, it can reach 47 FPS in 10-bit mode (RAW8). When recording images, since the actual write speed will be affected by the write speed of the hard drive itself, when the hard drive write speed is slow, the recording may not reach the theoretical speed. It is recommended to use a high-quality solid-state drive to record data to fully take advantage of the camera's performance. Use the ST4 guide cable to connect the camera and the AUTO GUIDE port of the equatorial mount for autoguiding.
