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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSONY IMX662 Sensor: 91% QE and 30s Exposures for EAA\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUntethered Astronomy: 2.4G WiFi and a 2500 mAh Battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SC311 Pro eliminates the need for a dedicated laptop and power cables at the telescope.
