  • 48-Bit Color
More Meade Deep Sky Imager #04522Features :

USB 2.0 High Speed:
New Meade 04522 Deep Sky Imager features a fast USB 2.0 High Speed connection. This will allow fast data transfer. The actual download time for daytime or planetary imaging is up to 5 frames per second. For longer exposures the download time is 1/2 a second in order to sustain a higher signal to noise ratio. There is virtually no delay between the time the image is taken and when it appears on your computer screen. Meade Deep Sky Imager-04522 is also backward compatible with USB 1.1.

Meade Deep-Sky Imager is Convection Cooled:
Deep Sky Imager Meade -04522 draws away heat from the CCD sensor with Meade’s proprietary “Convection cooling” design, allowing longer exposures with less noise.

Less Noise Means More Data:
With Meade’s proprietary collection of noise reduction techniques managing the data coming from the imaging chip, you get more data for every second of exposure.

No Compression, no Loss:
You get all the data from your Deep Sky-Imager without compression, and that means no loss of information in your raw images. So no matter if you take image for beauty or for science, Deep Sky Meade 04522 Imager will give you the results you need.

No Batteries Required:
Just plug the Meade Sky Imager’s USB 2.0 High Speed cable into your laptop and you are ready to image or autoguide. No other power supplies are needed.
