The Starlight Xpress Oculus All Sky CCD Camera is a 180 degree coverage all-sky camera.

Efficient Lens System:

The lens used in the Oculus is a high quality, multicoated fisheye lens with a 180 degree field of view. With a very high F/2 focal ratio, the light gathering capacity of this small lens is incredibly good and imaging the night sky is very simple.

Weatherproofing and Dome Construction:

Permanently mounting electronic equipment outside in all weathers is always a concern. With the Oculus, great care has been taken during the design process to incredibly reduce weather affects on the camera. Four drain holes have been machined into the outer flange at the base of the dome allowing water to simply run off the dome and down the outside of the housing. The housing has a beautiful bead blasted, clear anodised finished which is hardwearing and
looks stunning.

The dome is a quality, highly polished polycarbonate 3” dome with the lens positioned at the optimum point in the dome to ensure there is no diststortion in the star field.

Mounting and Rear Panel:

The Oculus comes with a right angled aluminum tripod bracket to secure it to the side of your dome or building. This has the standard 1/4" tripod thread on the base but can also be easily drilled and adapted for other mounting options.

The USB cable comes fitted to the Oculus and can be extended using powered USB2.0 hubs. The Oculus also has a 2.1 mm power socked in the rear to allow the supplied power supply to connect and power the heaters in the Oculus to ensure the dome does not dew up during.
