Hello,
Dont let my username fool you into thinking I am a Astrophotographer or anything of the sort.  I lifted the moniker from my dad.  He was using these cameras in one capacity or another for both Spectroscopy SA and Variable Star Photometry before his health failed him.  I am selling them and going to give the proceeds to his grandkids.

    if the  terminology isnt right, it's because i'm not sure what it means...:-)  But I'm sure all of you do )



We are selling his "vintage" SBIG ccd's.  

ST-7ME:
It is a parallel port version of the ST-7XME and ST-9XE USB cameras.   The imaging CCDs were brand new CCDs from Kodak at the time my Dad bought the camera.  The built-in guiding CCD is the TC211.

The following is from a SBIG advertisement years ago when the camera was introduced

 
  • Camera body with updated parallel elec. and built-in TC-211 autoguiding CCD
     ST-7ME includes a new Class 2 KAF-0402ME CCD with no column defects (765 x 510 pixels at 9 microns square)   
  • Standard Parallel interface to the computer
  • Single stage TE cooling
  • 110VAC Power Supply 
  • T-thread front plate

   (also have CFW-8A filter wheel and/or CFW-9 filter wheel  available....willing to make a pkg deal)


   ST-8

  There was this exact camera sold here on Astromart in January 2019 for $350.  My price is $300.   (see  Classified             No.:447293)   The were many ST-8xxx variants, and i do not want to post any incorrect info.  I'm sure as a buyer and enthusiast, you will know the features of this CCD.
