Description
- Opticstar PL-131M Coolair High Speed Video Camera - CS-Mount to 1.25" Telescope Adaptor - USB 2.0 Cable to Connect Camera to Computer - Printed Set-Up Guide - Software on CD - Opticstar Warranty
- Region of Interest - ROI: ROI has been implemented in hardware and offers fast frame rates at the expense of field of view. Frame rates of up to 220 frames per second are possible
- Binning Modes: Binning is implemented in the camera hardware for improved performance and is useful when you need to increase the camera's light sensitivity. Binning increases light sensitivity at the expense of resolution, the field of view remains the same in all binning modes
- Hardware Gain: Gain is implemented in the camera hardware and is useful in amplifying the incoming signal. This feature is particularly useful when minimum exposure times and/or maximum signal levels are required
- Planetary, Lunar and Solar Imaging: When imaging the Sun, Moon and planets atmospheric turbulence will have an adverse effect on the quality of the image
The Opticstar PL-131M Coolair High Speed Video Camera offers exceptional performance and versatility easily outperforming cameras costing considerably more. The camera excels as a planetary (Solar and Lunar) camera with frame rates of up to 220fps. It is also ideal as a guider or for industrial inspection and microscopy applications. Gain, Region of Interest (ROI) and binning are all features implemented in the hardware to deliver exceptional performance. The PL-131M camera has been designed to deliver high image quality at unusually high frame rates. The camera is capable of capturing an image even at a minimum 1ms exposure (10secs max in single shot mode) at all supported resolutions and with frame rates of up to 220fps.The PL-131M camera requires a fully featured, full speed USB2.0 port to take advantage of all the camera's advanced features.
