TS-Optics ToupTek G3M290M Monochrome Camera and Autoguider - Chip D=6.46 mm

The G3M290M is the ultimate autoguider and much more. The modern Sony IMX290 monochrome sensor convinces with an outstanding QE of over 80%. Only a few sensors achieve this sensitivity. Another special feature is the extremely high resolution due to 2.9 µm pixels. This makes this camera very interesting for astrophotography.

The advantages of the G3M290M as an autoguider

You always find a guide star, even with an off-axis guider - guaranteed!

With the high resolution, you can easily guide telescopes of up to 11" aperture with a 50 mm finder - guiding with the finder becomes possible.

The practical 1.25" housing makes adaption easy. Push the camera into the 1.25" receptacle, focus and get started with guiding.

Short working distance from the front surface to the sensor - you can reach focus even with short maximum distances.

With only 70 grams weight, the focuser is almost not loaded.

Of course, ST4 cable and ST4 port are supplied. Connect the camera directly to the autoguiding port of the mount.

The advantages of the G3M290M as an astro camera

Highly sensitive sensor combined with high resolution for ultimate lunar and planetary photographs.

High frame rate delivers many images in a short time - material for stacking.

Camera fits any 1.25" focuser. Clamp the camera like an eyepiece, focus and start astrophotography.

The high sensitivity makes the G3M290M suitable for photographing nebulae and galaxies.

The camera is equipped with a clear glass window filter that is also transparent in the infrared. This makes exciting infrared photography possible.

Spectral sensitivity
The sensor convinces not only with high sensitivity, but also with a broad spectral range. The sensitivity stays high even deep in the infrared. This means more stars for guiding, but also the exciting field of infrared photography (Venus, Mars ...) is accessible - less influence of seeing, so sharper images!
