Celestron NexImage is a complete CCD Solar System Imager capable of producing high quality planetary images with greater light sensitivity and color fidelity than comparable CMOS imagers. Celestron NexImage CCD Solar System Imager 93712 utilizes a CCD imaging chip to capture streaming video of any solar system object. Combined with Celestron NexImage Software Package, Celestron NexImage CCD Imager can bring out tremendous detail and reveal a final image that will rival those taken with astronomical CCD cameras costing thousands of dollars more:

• Compatibility - threaded on 1.25" adapter barrel makes NexImage compatible with most any telescope.
• Versatility - 1.25"adapter is threaded for standard eyepiece filters and can be removed and replaced with optional focal reducer lens.
• Tutorial - step-by-step Quick start and tutorial complete with sample video file that will have you producing quality images your first night out.
• Power - NexImage uses a 1/4" format color CCD chip that gives the same approximate magnification as a 5mm 50 degree field of view eyepiece.

• Full camera control - allows you to manually change the gain, contrast, exposure time, frame rate and color saturation.
• Preview mode - shows a live feed of your image making focusing as easy as focusing an eyepiece.
• Video recording - capture streaming video of solar system object used to generate the final high quality image.

• Frame Lists - automatically allows you to view individual frames of your video stream.
• Quality cutoff filter - filter out low quality images based on individual frame quality and alignment differences.
• Wavelet Filter - separates image into a series of unsharp mask layer that can be individually controlled to bring out all the hidden detail of the image.
• Image Processing Control - maximize your image with the most powerful image processing controls like, contrast, brightness, gamma curve, RGB histogram and many more.
