More information

  • ZWO ASI174MM - Overview

    The ZWO ASI174MM is a popular choice among astrophotographers, designed around the Sony Exmor IMX174 2.35MP sensor with advanced Pregius global shutter technology. Whether capturing solar, lunar, planetary, or deep-sky objects, this camera offers exceptional performance and reliability.

    Sony IMX174 CMOS Sensor

    Features a 1/1.2” monochrome sensor with 1936 x 1216 resolution and large 5.86µm pixels for enhanced light sensitivity and detail.

    Pregius Global Shutter

    Ensures distortion-free imaging by scanning all pixels simultaneously, making it perfect for solar and lunar imaging under challenging conditions like wind or atmospheric turbulence.

    Sony Exmor Technology

    Offers high-speed processing, low noise, and energy efficiency through column-parallel A/D conversion.

    Region of Interest (ROI) Mode

    Enables higher frame rates by capturing up to 16 customizable areas within the effective pixel array.

    High-Speed Imaging

    Achieves up to 164.5 fps at 10-bit ADC and 128.2 fps at 12-bit ADC for sharp, detailed images.

    High Quantum Efficiency (QE)

    Peak QE value estimated at 77%, providing an excellent signal-to-noise ratio for outstanding image quality.

    USB 3.0 & ST4 Ports

    USB 3.0 Port: Provides 5Gb bandwidth for fast data transfer, enabling smooth operation even at maximum frame rates and resolution.

    ST4 Port: Connects directly to your mount’s autoguide port for precise guiding during long exposure astrophotography.

    Back Focus Flexibility

    Remove the T2 11mm ring to achieve a compact back focus of just 6.5mm.

    Setup Instructions

    1. Connect the Camera: Use the USB 3.0 interface for high-speed, stable data transmission.
    2. Integrate with Mount: Utilize the ST4 port for seamless autoguiding during your imaging sessions.
    3. Optimize Imaging: Experiment with Region of Interest (ROI) mode to capture faster frame rates for specific celestial targets.
    4. Adjust Back Focus: For precise setups, remove the T2 ring to accommodate shorter optical paths.

    Other information

    The ZWO ASI174MM stands out due to its advanced global shutter design, eliminating focal plane distortions often seen in moving targets or unstable conditions. This makes it ideal for solar and lunar imaging, where fine details are crucial.

    With its high-speed imaging capability, ROI mode, and exceptional quantum efficiency, the ASI174MM ensures clear, sharp captures of faint deep-sky objects and bright planetary surfaces alike. The Pregius global shutter technology and Exmor architecture work together to reduce noise, enhance speed, and minimize power consumption, making this camera a favorite among serious astrophotographers.

    For those seeking high performance, versatility, and precision, the ZWO ASI174MM delivers a seamless astrophotography experience with professional-grade results.
