  • WiFi Astronomy Camera | SVBONY SC311 Pro

    The SVBONY SC311 Pro integrates a 2.1 Megapixel SONY IMX662 sensor with a self-contained 2500 mAh battery and 2.4G WiFi module, creating a complete, untethered EAA system controlled entirely from your smartphone. With a peak QE of approximately 91%, 2.9µm pixels, and an exposure range of 1s to 30s, this camera captures detailed 1920x1080 images of nebulae and galaxies directly to an onboard 32GB TF card without needing a laptop or external power.

    SONY IMX662 Sensor: 91% QE and 30s Exposures for EAA

    At the core of the SC311 Pro is the SONY IMX662 sensor, chosen for its high sensitivity and low-noise characteristics critical for Electronically Assisted Astronomy (EAA). A peak Quantum Efficiency of approximately 91% ensures that the majority of incoming photons are converted to signal, while the 2.9µm pixels provide a good resolution scale for planets and smaller deep-sky objects on common telescopes. The ability to take exposures up to 30 seconds allows you to gather enough light to reveal the structure of brighter nebulae and galaxies in near real-time.

    Untethered Astronomy: 2.4G WiFi and a 2500 mAh Battery

    The SC311 Pro eliminates the need for a dedicated laptop and power cables at the telescope. The camera's built-in 2.4G WiFi module creates its own hotspot, allowing you to connect directly with a phone or tablet running the SvbonyAstroCam app. An internal 2500 mAh battery provides power for a typical observing session, freeing you to use the camera with portable setups like Dobsonian telescopes where power access is limited.

    On-Camera Storage: A 32GB TF Card for Cable-Free Captures

    To complete its standalone design, the SC311 Pro saves all images and videos directly to a removable TF card. It ships with a 32GB card and supports capacities up to 256GB, providing ample space for an entire night of observation. You can control captures, including planned imaging sequences, through the app and later download your favorite shots to your mobile device for sharing or transfer the card to a computer for processing.

    SC311 Pro vs. Traditional USB Cameras: The EAA Advantage

    While a conventional USB astronomy camera often requires a laptop, dedicated imaging software, and an external power source, the SC311 Pro offers a streamlined, all-in-one solution perfect for EAA and outreach.

    • Conventional Camera Advantage: USB 3.0 or 5.0 cameras offer much higher frame rates, making them superior for "lucky imaging" of planets where you need to capture thousands of frames in a short time. They also provide more advanced software control for dedicated astrophotographers.
    • SVBONY SC311 Pro Advantage: The SC311 Pro's strength is simplicity and portability. Its integrated battery and WiFi are ideal for quick setup with any telescope, especially non-tracking mounts like Dobsonians. It lowers the barrier to entry for EAA, allowing you to see and share color images of deep-sky objects from your telescope using just your phone.

  • How do I connect my phone to the SVBONY SC311 Pro?

    The SVBONY SC311 Pro creates its own 2.4G WiFi hotspot when powered on. From your phone or tablet's WiFi settings, connect to the network named "SC311_XXXXXX" and then open the SvbonyAstroCam app to gain full control over the camera's exposure, gain, and capture settings.

    Can the SVBONY SC311 Pro be used for imaging planets like Jupiter?

    Yes, the SC311 Pro's 2.9µm pixels and 1920x1080 resolution are well-suited for capturing planetary detail. While its WiFi connection may not support the ultra-high frame rates of a dedicated USB planetary camera, it is fully capable of recording video that can be stacked to produce high-quality images of Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars.

    What deep-sky objects can I see with the SC311 Pro in an 8" f/6 Dobsonian?

    In an 8" Dobsonian, the SC311 Pro is excellent for EAA on bright deep-sky objects. Using exposures between 15 and 30 seconds, you can expect to see color and structure in targets like the Orion Nebula (M42), the Hercules Cluster (M13), the Ring Nebula (M57), and the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51).

    Does the SVBONY SC311 Pro require an external power source?

    No, the SC311 Pro has a built-in 2500 mAh battery that provides power for a full observing session (approximately 4 hours). It can be recharged via its Type-C USB port, but it does not need to be plugged in during operation, making it ideal for portable telescope setups.

    What file formats does the SVBONY SC311 Pro save?

    The SvbonyAstroCam app allows you to save images in standard formats like JPG/PNG for easy sharing, as well as scientific formats like RAW and FITS for post-processing. Videos can also be recorded for planetary imaging or capturing events like occultations.

    How does the SC311 Pro attach to a telescope?

    The camera includes a standard 1.25" nosepiece adapter, allowing it to be inserted into any standard 1.25" focuser or diagonal, just like an eyepiece. It also supports C and CS-mount lenses via the included adapters for all-sky or wide-field applications.
