The Astrolumina ALccd9c uses the color sensor Kodak KAF-8300 with almost 9 MP. The pixel size of 5.4 µm in square allows optimal sampling even in high resolution systems. The diagonal size is large enough for most uses.
Advantages: hard- and software support
Cooling:
A temperature of up to 50 °C below ambient can be set via camera control software.
Good storage is an important preventive measure against dew and also extends the service life:
After use, put the camera straight into the TS Protect Case and add some silica gel. During storage, the silica gel absorbs the moisture from the camera. At the same time, the penetration of moist room air is prevented. Dry storage can even partially regenerate the small desiccant tablets in cooled cameras. Your camera or accessories are always ready for you in optimum condition. You can find the silica gel and the case in our product recommendations.
The cameras are not airtight, so if the camera remains on the telescope, it is exposed to moisture. The small amount of desiccant in the camera can protect the sensor and the inside of the protective glass from moisture for the duration of the exposure, but not for days on end. Moisture problems can be the result. A simple trick is to stretch a plastic bag around the focuser to which the camera is attached so that no air can get in. Silica gel is placed in a small cloth bag inside the plastic bag. This will also create a "dry climate zone" for the camera on the telescope. This allows you to leave the camera on the telescope for a few days for an imaging session lasting several days.
In the medium and long term, however, this is no substitute for proper storage in an airtight case with silica gel.
Control Software:
CCDCap is easy to use and supports all features of the camera. Drivers are also included.
Important note: There is no power supply included in the scope of delivery. You absolutely need the AL70013 which is shown in the accessories section!
