Vai al moduloZWO ASI183MC Pro Color – Cooled Sony IMX183 Camera with Very High Quantum Efficiency
The ZWO ASI183MC Pro belongs to the ASI 183 series, among the most sensitive in ZWO's history: the sensor reaches a peak quantum efficiency of 84%! Thanks to tiny 2.4 μm back-illuminated (BSI) pixels, the camera still delivers a full well capacity of 15,000 electrons, particularly high for this pixel size.
The two-stage Peltier cooling lowers the sensor temperature by up to 40-45°C below ambient, drastically reducing noise for long-exposure deep-sky imaging. The convenience of one-shot color imaging, without filters or filter wheels, combines with the high frame rate, also useful for solar and lunar photography via Lucky Imaging.

- Two-stage Peltier cooling, delta up to 40-45°C
