Enter the world of astrophotography now - with the new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 4K DEEP SKY ASTRO Camera including ST4 autoguider function.
This is truly new: Equipped with the new high-sensitive SONY IMX585 Exmor CMOS colour sensor, this astronomy camera delivers amazing image results with extremely short exposure times even with basic telescope equipment. In addition, this ultra-modern camera can also be used as an autoguider, e.g. to actively track the main imaging device with an SLR or CCD astro camera. An all-round camera that delivers super-sharp and high-resolution planetary images. The high 4K resolution of 3840x2160 pixels guarantees the best possible image result.
Sensor
The secret to the high light sensitivity is SONY's new back illuminated Exmor CMOS sensor.
It increases the quantum efficiency to up to 77 % at 533 nm, which
leads to an extremely high light sensitivity and thus particularly
bright and high-contrast photos. In addition, the particularly low noise level of this new CMOS sensor generation by SONY ensures exceptionally high brilliance and no active cooling is required.
Nevertheless, this astro camera has an elaborate internal structure
made of aluminium for ideal heat radiation and a fan that can be switched
on via software. When used with suitable telescopes, the high native
pixel resolution of 3840x2160 enables very nice overview images of the moon, but also detailed planetary images.
Solar Imaging
This camera is also recommended for solar astro-photography. Especially
the Lunt LS40 THa solar telescopes (item No. 0551145/0551146/0551147), with their short focal length, allow in combination with this planetary camera with its large sensor great overview images of the sun.
Important Note: When observing and taking photos of the sun,
always use a suitable protective solar filter or a special solar
telescope. Otherwise there is a risk of immediate blindness and damage
to the camera.
Software
The included Explore Capture professional software offers not only the necessary basic functions for image and video capture, but also many helpful special functions for image post-processing and for setting up the guider. Functions
such as live image display, exposure settings, white balance, dark
image capture, stacking, timelapse recording and much more can be
configured individually. Especially the very sophisticated software makes it really easy for you to get started in astrophotography. With the automatic settings you can produce absolutely presentable results without a lot of prior knowledge. And when you are ready, simply switch off the automatic settings and gradually venture into the individual professional settings.
Automatic tracking control
Connect the camera directly to the ST4 port of your telescope mount and you have a fully automatic tracking control. Thus, long exposures of several minutes are possible without
the stars producing unwanted star traces due to the always existing
periodic error of the telescope mount gears. A corresponding ST-4
connection cable is even included in the camera's scope of delivery. Because of the high
light sensitivity of the camera, you will always find a suitable guide
star even with very short exposure times. Simple automatic tracking at its best.
Connection
For the connection to telescopes, guiding scopes or off-axis guiders
the camera has a 1.25'' socket with 1.25'' filter thread (M28.5x0.6) and
a large T2 connection thread (M42x0.75) directly on the housing.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
This is not a stand-alone guider camera. You always need a Windows 10 or 11 computer to take pictures and for autoguiding.
The autoguider software is not included. You can use PHD2 Guiding, GuideDog, Metaguide, Guidemaster (freeware) or AstroArt, MaxIm DL (paid).

Filter Set 2 is recommended for Moon & Planets from 100mm (4") Aperture
Set 2 includes the following filters:
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Green No.56 - 0310262
The green filter is to increase the contrasts enormously between the red and the blue regions of the cloud structures on the gas planets Jupiter and Saturn. Seeing our Earth Moon through the green filter, the contrasts of each ray crater become clearly more visible.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Orange No.21 - 0310273
This one really supports the detection of the dark areas on the planet Mars. The details of the clouds of Saturn and Jupiter are also so much more visible through the Filter.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Yellow No.12 - 0310267
Watching the Moon surface through the filter, the contrasts will enormously increase. Same with planet Mars. On the huge planet Jupiter, when using the filter, you can even see the contrasts between the cloud-bands and a lot more details. Starting with a telescope diameter of 8“ and a clear sight, you even get to see various details of Saturn.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Blue No.80A - 0310264
The color of light blue really supports watching the high clouds on Mars. The contrast increases. The dark red structures will be shown even darker, so this is the perfect filter for watching the big red Flecks on the gas planet Jupiter. The rings of Saturn will be accentuated, the structures of the Venus Atmosphere will be even finer.
What ist a color Filter for and do we really need it?
Color Filters darken the light slightly, that reaches the eye or the sensor of the camera. This eliminates for instance stronger transitions. The result is that your picture turns out with more contrast which automatically shows more details.
