QHY 168C COLOR CAMERA WITH CASE

I have for sale a lightly used QHY 168C color camera that is in great shape. I used this with an AT 102ED refractor telescope and it does a good job. I have spent most of my astrophotography time with filters and decided a couple of years ago to start using color cameras and this was my first. I have upgraded to another color camera and no longer need this. I will note for you that there are some minor scuffs particulary under the angle rotator but these have no effect on the camera and I adjusted the ad specs for the camera about cooling to show reality for the cooler. I have attached one image of the Pelican. Drivers are readily available on the QHY site.

 

QHY Key Features list:

  • QHY168C cooled 16-Megapixel color astronomy camera with 14-bit ADC, ideal for serious deep-sky imaging

  • Sony IMX071 APS-C CMOS sensor with big 4.8um pixels in a 4952x3288 array produces true RAW-format images

  • Two-stage cooling keeps sensor temperature as much as 30C below ambient for low-noise imaging, even in warm conditions

  • Advanced AR coatings on sensor and camera window to greatly reduce halo around bright stars

  • 128MB DDRII data buffer to minimize data dropouts during image transfer

  • Reduced amp-glow for superior imaging of faint objects

The unit requires a 12VDC 3 amp power supply and this one has a modified SBIG 12VDC 3.3 amp power.

The unit comes with a carrying case.

Shipping to CONUS only.
