ToupTek Astro ATR585C IMX585 Color Camera ATR3CMOS08300KPA

ATR585C camera incorporates the advanced SONY IMX585 sensor, renowned for its exceptional imaging capabilities for both planetary and deep-sky objects. Engineered with an integrated heat dissipation structure and an efficient cooling module, it enables the image sensor to function at a temperature 45℃ lower than the ambient environment. With features including zero amp-glow, a minuscule pixel size, and a high dynamic range (HDR) mode. This camera is ideal for entry-level deep space photography, offering outstanding performance at a remarkably cost-effective price point.

STARVIS refers to the backlight image sensor technology developed by Sony to improve low light characteristics and near-infrared sensitivity. STARVIS 2 improves dynamic range and near-infrared sensitivity compared to STARVIS1. Benefiting from it, ATR585C shows better performance.

ATR585C is a 1/1.2-inch optical format, 8.3-megapixel CMOS image sensor with a pixel size of 2.9um. lt offers high clarity and low-noise performance.

ATR585C camera has a 512MB (4Gb) ultra-fast memory buffer to ensure stable image transmission.

ATR585C is designed with an integrated heat dissipation structure and an efficient cooling module. The cooling system of ATR585C features a two-stage Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) with controllable electric fan assisting in heat dissipation. This allows the image sensor to operate at temperatures up to 45 degrees Celsius lower than the ambient temperature. The exposure time can be set for up to 1 hour, ensuring that every minute detail is captured. Even in summer, it can still run stably all night with cooling temperatures ranging from of -5°C to -10°C.

ATR585C has been carefully designed and is able to achieve zero amp-glow photo shooting. This not only greatly reduces the generation of internal glow, but also effectively suppresses the interference of external light. It also enhances the stability and durability of the camera, which means you'll be able to capture sharper, cleaner images in both long and high exposure modes.

ATR585C adopts the new anti-dew technology , which can effectively solve the condensation problem through heating.

This heating function consumes about 5 watts, which can be turned off via software to save power.

Additionally, The dew heater at the protection window has 4 adjustable levels, allowing users to find the heating power that best suits their needs.
