TheToupTek ATR585C Cooled Colour Astronomy Camera is a high-performance cooled astronomical camera designed for astrophotography enthusiasts and professionals alike. At the heart of this camera is the impressive Sony IMX585 4K back-illuminated CMOS sensor, which boasts an impressive 8.29-megapixel resolution and small 2.9μm pixels, making it ideal for deep sky imaging with short focal length refractors.
One of the standout features of the ATR585C is its exceptional quantum efficiency of over 91%, ensuring maximum light-gathering capability for capturing faint astronomical objects. Additionally, the camera's low read noise of 0.5e- (in HCG mode) and thermoelectric cooling capability of up to -45°C below ambient temperature result in remarkably clean and noise-free images.
The ToupTek ATR585C Cooled Colour Astronomy Camera excels not only in deep sky imaging but also in planetary and solar imaging, thanks to its high sensitivity to near-infrared light and blazing-fast 5Gbps USB 3.0 connectivity, which enables an impressive 47 frames per second (FPS) framerate. Furthermore, the camera's 512MB of DDR3 memory ensures smooth and efficient data transfer, enhancing the overall imaging experience.
Notably, the ATR585C camera exhibits zero amp glow, even at high gain and over long exposure times, a significant advantage over many other cameras. This is evident in the provided comparison image, where the ToupTek image on the right shows no visible amp-glow in a 5-minute exposure at 20°C, unlike the other camera.
To combat dew formation, a common issue in astrophotography, the ATR585C features a built-in dew heater around the protective window, with four levels of adjustable heating power. This ensures that your imaging sessions are not interrupted by unwanted condensation.
Additionally, the camera includes an integrated two-port USB 2.0 hub, allowing you to conveniently connect guide cameras, electronic focusers, filter wheels, and other accessories, streamlining your imaging setup.
The provided sensor analysis graphs illustrate the exceptional performance of the ATR585C camera at full resolution, with 12-bit RAW output at -10°C in LCG mode, showcasing its capability to deliver outstanding results in various imaging scenarios.
Overall, the ToupTek ATR585C Cooled Colour Astronomy Camera is a powerful and versatile tool for astrophotographers, offering exceptional image quality, advanced cooling capabilities, and user-friendly features, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced imagers alike.
