The ToupTek G3M2210M Monochrome Planetary Camera features a 1.25" barrel size, making it compatible with a wide range of telescopes and off-axis guiders (although an off-axis guider is not included).

At the heart of the G2M2210M is the SmartSens SC2210 CMOS sensor, a back-illuminated sensor with exceptional performance characteristics. It boasts an impressive quantum efficiency of over 92%, meaning it can capture more than 92% of the incoming photons at 500nm wavelength. This high quantum efficiency, coupled with its low read noise of just 0.47e-, makes the sensor ideal for capturing faint details on planets and deep-sky objects.

One standout feature of the SC2210 sensor is its exceptional near-infrared (NIR) sensitivity. This allows the G2M2210M to be used with IR-pass filters, which can help cut through atmospheric distortions and reveal finer details on planetary surfaces.

The G2M2210M is equipped with both USB 3.0 connectivity and a traditional ST-4 autoguiding interface, providing flexibility for different setups. The USB 3.0 interface enables an incredibly fast maximum frame rate of 150 frames per second (FPS) at full resolution, facilitated by the camera's built-in 512MB DDR3 memory for reliable high-speed video capture.

With its 4μm pixel size and high-performance sensor, the ToupTek G2M2210M is an ideal choice for astrophotographers and astronomers seeking to capture detailed images of planets and other celestial objects, as well as for precise off-axis guiding during long-exposure astrophotography sessions.
