Description
ToupTek ATR2600C Color Astronomy Camera
ATR2600C is a professional astronomy camera that combines high precision, high sensitivity, and high stability, bringing users an unprecedented experience in deep-sky photo shooting. ATR2600C features a Sony back-illuminated IMX571 sensor, high gain mode and low noise mode with a readout noise as low as 0.883e-. Native 16bit ADC offers an ultra-high 14 stops of dynamic range, zero amp-glow, and an extra high full well mode! The full well capacity can reach 51 ke- in normal mode, and up to 100 ke- in high full well mode. Its extraordinary performance and extensive usage will give astrophiles a great astrophotography experience.
All DSO Cooled Cameras need to be connected to an external 11-14v power supply to image.
Please remember: all ToupTek Astro DSO cooled cameras can only be powered by 12V3A DC power supply. We recommend using the power adapter that comes with the camera or a lithium-ion battery with stable output of 11-14V. Please do not use power supplies that have falsely stated specifications or unstable outputs to power the camera, as this may affect image capture or even damage the camera.
Two stage TEC cooling system
ATR2600C is designed with an integrated heat dissipation structure and an efficient cooling module. The cooling system of ATR2600C features a two-stage Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) with controllable electric fan assisting in heat dissipation. This allows the image sensor to operate at temperatures up to 42 degrees Celsius lower than the ambient temperature. The exposure time can be set for up to 1 hour, ensuring that every minute detail is captured. Even in summer, it can still run stably all night with cooling temperatures ranging from of -5°C to -10°C.
Native 16bit ADC
ATR2600C is a high-dynamic range astro-camera. Its native 16bit ADC achieves a true dynamic range output of 14 stops, which ensures the delicacy and accuracy of the image, and the color transition is smoother and more natural.
Zero Amp-Glow
ATR2600C has been carefully designed and is able to achieve zero amp-glow photo shooting. This not only greatly reduces the generation of internal glow, but also effectively suppresses the interference of external light. It also enhances the stability and durability of the camera, which means you'll be able to capture sharper, cleaner images in both long and high exposure modes.
Anti-dew technology
ATR2600C adopts the new anti-dew technology, which can effectively solve the condensation problem through heating.
This heating function consumes about 5 watts, which can be turned off via software to save power.
Additionally, the dew heater at the protection window has 4 adjustable levels, allowing users to find the heating power that best suits their needs.
