SOLD OUT!

The differences between the Atik 314L cameras and 314L+ cameras is that the 314L+ has:

  • Temperature regulated cooling and temperature set point capability!
  • Improved cooling capacity, as the 314L+ can reach 27°C below ambient temperature!
  • The 314L+ is a 1.45MP camera
  • No external boxes required.
    The entire regulation system is built into the camera and is controlled by software.
  • Notably, the Atik 314L+ maintains the ultra low noise levels of the 314L and its compactness!

The new Atik 383L+ is an outstanding 8 Megapixel camera which uses the Kodak KAF-8300 CCD. A huge amount has been written about this fabulous CCD with its huge number of good-sized pixels. This sensor should redefine mid-range astro-imaging as it makes high level cooled camera imaging available at sensible pricing! 

  • Kodak 8.3 million 5.4um square pixels
  • Ultra low readout noise for outstanding sensitivity (7e-)
  • Lightweight
  • Highly efficient set-point cooling to 40°C below ambient
  • Extremely linear response
  • Great software for image acquisition and processing

 

 

 
NOTES

Some cameras are available upon your order only and a deposit with your order is required.

Insurance cover for goods in transit is available from us for only $2 per $100 value of goods. Please advise us if you require this option when ordering.

Please consider insurance because we are not responsible for loss of parcels or damage sustained by parcels - the carrier is responsible! We do pack well!

Please do NOT write <fragile> on anything you send to us as doing so greatly increases the risk of damage. Please try to "double-box" all items sent to us.

The number of pixels is not the best indicator of performance!
This is especially true for deep-space astrophotography where low noise is most important!

 There are many other factors to consider, such as; light sensitivity (QE), CCD read noise, USB 2.0, Gaussian noise distribution, read
noise frame FFT, overall SNR, light response linearity, regulated cooling precision, ADC (16-bit?), etc...

All specifications, prices, etc.,
listed are approximations only.
 

Atik filter wheels and off axis guider
 

***NEW***

Atik metal Off Axis Guider (OAG)
(Yes, metal design - not plastic)

New low price!

$349 AUD
In stock!

One of the key features of the Atik OAG is a moving prism system. Thanks to this new design, you can choose from a wider variety of stars within the corrected field of view.

  • The Atik OAG allows the use of up to full-frame 35mm CCDs
  • Features a moving prism to help you select the perfect star for your guiding needs
  • Velvety smooth and highly precise fine-focusing system.
  • Three extension rings of
    various lengths means it can reach focus with many camera systems.

 

 

Atik OAG Camera Adaptor

$99 AUD
In stock!

  • The Atik OAG camera adaptor allows the installation of the Atik OAG onto a CCD camera - without having to use an EFW2 filter wheel in between the OAG and a CCD camera
  • The OAG camera adaptor will maintain the correct distance to allow focusing of a guiding camera
  • In addition, full camera rotation is possible because this adaptor uses the same camera adaptors as the EFW2
