AstronomyKameras
AstronomyKameras are imaging devices designed for capturing astronomical objects. They integrate sensitive image sensors with optical and electronic systems optimized for low light, long exposures, and high dynamic range. The term covers cameras used by amateur and professional observers alike and encompasses both scientific and hobbyist workflows.
Most AstronomyKameras use either charged-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) sensors. Monochrome sensors are common
Camera bodies are designed to mate with telescopes and devices like electronic filter wheels, guider ports,
In the market, AstronomyKameras are produced by several manufacturers, including ZWO, QHY, SBIG, Atik, and Starlight
