Description

Introducing the ASI 183MM camera, featuring the Sony IMX183 chip. This back-illuminated monochrome design provides an astonishing 84% quantum efficiency on the CMOS style chip. The total area of the chips is 1" format allowing for smaller filters to be used without vignetting. However thanks to the 2.4 micron pixel size, this chip boasts 20 mega-pixels of resolution. This camera is ideal for wide-field deep sky astrophotography without undersampling.

This Pro version features a cooler to regulate the sensor temperature down to 45°C below ambient temperature. It also provides a 256mb DDR3 memory buffer which further alleviates any amp-glow issues present on a CMOS sensor.

With a peak QE of 84% (mono), 20.18Mega pixels, 15000e full well, 1.6e read noise, and 256MB DDR3 buffer, the ASI 183MM Pro is the most sensitive ZWO camera yet!

The 183MM Pro has a diagonal measurement of 15.86mm with an Approx. 20.48M-Effective Pixel Monochrome/Color CMOS Image Sensor

Violet J. ★★★★★

The back-illuminated sensor captures faint nebulae details my old camera couldn’t even detect. I’ve been blown away by the sharpness in just a single 60-second exposure.

Ryan Z. ★★★★★

I've been imaging with it for three nights now, and the back-illuminated sensor really delivers—stars stay tight and the background is remarkably clean even at short exposures. The USB connection has been rock solid through my whole capture session, which is more than I can say for my last camera.

Andrew ★★★★★

The 84% quantum efficiency on this chip is incredible—my first test image showed details in the nebula that my old camera simply couldn't see. Paired with the back-illuminated design, the sensitivity is a game-changer for faint deep-sky targets. Glad I went with this model.
