Description
Atik 383L+ Monochrome CCD Camera with Kodak KAF-8300 Sensor
Redefining mid-range astro-imaging, the new Atik 383L+ is an 8 megapixel camera featuring the Kodak KAF-8300 CCD. This design by Atik makes it easier for enthusiasts to access multi-megapixel, cooled cameras more easily with its irresistible price. The 383L+ is a fantastic CCD with a huge number of good-sized pixels.
ATIK provides cameras with very high image quality but at affordable prices. The ATIK 383L+ is no exception, offering the same high quality at a reasonable cost. The Platform 3 by ATIK is featured with the 383L+ and it supports the Kodak KAF-8300. The advantages of this design provide very low read-noise circuits and reliability.
The camera can be used with either the EFW-U or our EFW2 and Off-Axis Guider. Standard 1.25" filters can be used for focal ratios of f/5 and above without vignetting. Faster focal ratios will need flat-field correction or 36mm filters.
Atik 383L+ CCD Camera Monochrome Highlights
- Ultra low read-noise for great sensitivity
- 8.3 million 5.4 µm square pixels for high-resolution imaging
- Lightweight for no flexure of the telescope focuser tube
- Highly efficient set point cooling to 40 degrees max below ambient
- High quality mechanical shutter
- Externally accessible dessicant plugs
- Great software for image acquisition and pre-processing
- Memory Buffer to reduce readout artifacts
For data acquisition and camera control, the acclaimed Artemis Capture software is included as well as plug-ins to allow use with Maxim DL, Astroart, and CCDSoft.
Designed for a wide range of image sensing applications, the Kodak KAF-8300 Image Sensor is a 22.5mm diagonal (4/3 format) high performance monochrome full frame CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor. Digital imaging can be conducted as well with the KAF-8300.
Each pixel contains blooming protection by means of a lateral overflow drain thereby preventing image corruption during high light level conditions. For the color version, each of the 5.4 µm square pixels are patterned with an RGB mosaic color filter with overlying microlenses for improved color response and reproduction. Several versions of monochrome devices are available with or without microlenses.
