The ASI183 line of cameras are ZWO’s most sensitive cameras in history to date. It has a peak QE of 84% made possible by a back illuminated sensor. The small pixels with large well depth, low read noise, and high QE make this camera most suitable for imaging at short focal lengths without sacrificing dynamic range or sensitivity.

The Pro version also features deep cooling for low thermal noise when taking long exposures and a data buffer for consistent data transfer

DDR Memory Buffer:

The ZWO ASI183MM Pro Camera features a 256MB DDR3 memory buffer to help improve data transfer reliability and produces minimal amp-glow caused by the slow transfer speeds. 

Astrophotography performance:

The ASI183 cameras has a very large full well capacity (15000e) for such small pixel size, 1.6e read noise @ 30DB, and 12stops dynamic range @ Gain=0. The ASI183 cameras also utilize firmware features to minimize amp-glow for maximum performance in astrophotography.

USB 3.0 Port & USB2.0 Hub:

• USB 3.0 Port: Provides 5Gb bandwidth to make it possible for ASI183 Pro to run at 19 fps (12bit, normal mode) or 19 fps (10bit, high speed mode) at full resolution(20.18Mega).
• USB 2.0 Hub: Easily compatible with various accessories (filter wheel, guide camera, electronic focuser) The USB hub can also be powered by an external power source. Includes 2 short 0.5m USB 2.0 cables.

Cooling system:

The camera has a 2-stage TEC cooling system that enables deep cooling (40°C to 45°C below surroundings). This cooler will require an external power supply ot 9-15V batteries which are not included with the camera.
