Cooled Monochrome Camera ZWO ASI2600MM-P - High Performance for Astrophotography

The cooled monochrome camera ZWO ASI2600MM-P is an ideal solution for demanding astrophotographers, offering exceptional image quality for deep sky imaging. Equipped with the 26-megapixel Sony IMX571 APS-C CMOS sensor, this camera uses "Back-illuminated CMOS" technology for increased sensitivity and reduced read noise.

The absence of pre-amplifier effect eliminates electroluminescence issues, ensuring clear images without unwanted defects. The regulated thermoelectric cooling allows the sensor temperature to be lowered by up to 35°C below ambient temperature, reducing thermal noise during long exposures.
