QHYCCD 367C Cooled Full Frame Color CMOS Camera - QHY367PRO-C

QHY367C Cooled Color CMOS Camera

The QHY367C Color Camera uses the big full frame Sony IMX094 as its image sensor. This front-illuminated 36.4 megapixel CMOS sensor has a 7376 x 4938 pixel array with a 4.88 µm x 4.88 µm pixel size. The IMX094 has good dynamic range (14+ stops), low readout noise, and a full well capacity of 56ke-.

The QHY367C comes with a two-stage TEC cooling and temperature regulation system that can cool your camera down to as low as -40ºC below ambient. QHY has also incorporated anti-dew technology into the QHY367. The CMOS chamber is fully sealed and includes a silicon gel tube socket as well as a heater to help keep both your sensor and the sensor window dry, even on damp nights. Speaking of the sensor window, QHY offers an AR+AR coating on the QHY367C's optical window to help control halos around bright stars. This means an IR-Cut filter will need to be mounted in front of the camera. QHY supplies a 2" Filter Holder for this purpose. User supplies the 2" IR-Cut Filter.

A built-in 128MB DDRII image buffer provides a safeguard against unexpected drops in data transmission. A frame buffer avoids lost frames during USB transfer by storing image data in the camera itself until it can be safely transmitted. Buffering will also make sure your video runs more smoothly when using a slower computer that cannot always handle high-speed data well.
