TOUPTEK G3M 715C PLANETARY CAMERA [COLOUR]

The ToupTek G3M715C Planetary Colour is a 1.25" barrel size planetary camera using the Sony IMX715C CMOS sensor. With a quantum efficiency of >91%, read noise as low as 0.42e- and tiny 1.45µm pixels, the G3M715C is an excellent camera for high resolution lunar and solar imaging with very short focal length telescopes.

The G3M715C's back-illuminated sensor has a large resolution of 8.3 megapixels, QE up to 91% and very good NIR sensitivity, making it possible to use IR-pass filters to cut through the atmosphere and bring out finer details.

Note: in order to attach 1.25" filters to Touptek G3M series planetary cameras, you must use the included 1.25" barrel extender. The standard CS adapter does not have the necessary M28.5 filter threads.

When paired with a telescope with a short focal length of 300mm, an imaging scale of 1 arcsecond per pixel is achievable due to the small pixels. This also makes it possible to more reliably guide with typical 50mm-sized guide scopes.

The G3M715C is equipped with USB 3.0 connectivity as well as a traditional ST-4 autoguiding interface. Thanks to the high transmission speed of USB 3, the G3M715C can reach a fast 47FPS at its full 8.3MP resolution. The built-in 512MB DDR3 memory ensures reliability over long sequences of high framerate video capture. Its 1.25" barrel design also makes it straightforward to use with most off-axis guiders (OAG not included).

Available in anodized Red.
