Details
Video astronomy is ideally suited for use in public outreach programs and educational settings. It allows faint objects to be seen in incredible detail by all involved, and maintains that ‘at the telescope’ feeling without the need to queue up and crowd round an eyepiece. With a choice of either a mono or a colour sensor, the Infinity caters for those who prioritise absolute detail, as well as those who want to explore the universe in colour beyond the sensitivity of the unaided human eye.
The ICX825 sensor is accompanied by an excellent passive cooling system and a lightweight, compact body, perfect for use with any type of telescope! But how sensitive? Compared with the 314L + 650nm, the Infinity is very sensitive. In fact it is more sensitive to even the spectacular 460EX, making it the perfect camera for those looking for a model from the cost. The graph below shows the difference in sensitivity between the sensor ICX285 and the ICX825:
But the Infinity is not only sensible. The passive cooling system which keeps the operating temperature in a satisfactory arrangements, in this camera you can not adjust the operating temperature. Calibration speaking, the room has such a low noise that record and subtract the dark is an option rather than an obligation! With its compact body, the Infinity can also be used with Fastar / Hyperstar configurations, not adding any obstruction. Its low weight also keeps to a minimum the effort on the corrector plate. Moreover, thanks to the RJ 12 you can also use it as a guide camera.

Innovativa e potente per riprese deepsky live review by Marco on 11/14/2016Innanzitutto, ancora una volta un elogio all'equipe di Primalucelab per gentilezza e disponibilità nel rapporto con il cliente. Per quanto riguarda il giudizio sul prodotto acquistato, devo dire che questa camera CCD sfoggia delle capacità sorprendenti di ripresa live grazie sia al suo sensibilissimo sensore sia alle performances del suo specifico software di cattura semplice da usare ma nello stesso tempo potente nel consentire la visualizzazione dopo solo pochi secondi di un tappeto di stelle con relative nebulose. Il mio primo test è stato utilizzando un rifrattore 80 mm a F/4,8 con cielo con inquinamento luminoso medio-alto. E' consigliabile usare in queste condizioni un flitro LP. In conclusione, mi sento tranquillamente di consigliarla a chi voglia fare riprese live anche da siti con inquinamento luminoso significativo utilizzando possibilmente riduttori di focale.
