24 mega pixel resolution and RAW files

QHYCCD QHY247C camera has a big 28.2mm diagonal CMOS color sensor with 24 mega pixel resolution (6024 x 4024). USB3.0 interface, very low readout noise, Peltier cell cooling system (maximum delta T is -35°C below ambient) and 14bit ADC converter makes this camera a great choice for people searching for a all-in-one system capable of recording great pictures both of deep-sky (galaxies, nebula and star clusters) and planetary (planets, Moon) objects. Although DSLR cameras can record images in RAW format, typically it's still not a really perfect raw image since you can find the de-noise sign on the raw images because of the hot pixel removal. But the QHY247C camera offers a TRUE RAW IMAGE OUTPUT, saving the original file and keeping the maximum flexibility for astronomy image processing.

Cooling and anti-fog system

The QHY247C camera has an efficient cooling system with two-stage Peltier cell that allows you to lower the temperature of the sensor down to -35°C above the ambient temperature. Furthermore, the integrated heating plate in the camera prevents fogging of the optical window in front of the sensor even in conditions of high humidity.

128MB integrated memory

Thanks to development work of QHYCCD, the QHY247C has the built-in 128 MB high-speed DDR memory allows buffering of images to avoid loss of frames, making this camera perfect for use even with low-performances control computer.
