The Altair AA533MTEC features a 14-bit Sony IMX533 backside illuminated sensor with very high sensitivity.
Lower read noise and higher sensitivity easily outperform front illuminated CCD cameras at a more competitive price.
Zero Amp Glow makes the AA533MTEC a pleasure to use and the 3.76um square format pixels make it easy to frame targets, especially galaxies!
2-stage TEC cooling reduces thermal noise to negligible levels and the camera sensor is guaranteed against freezing for two years due to the special chamber design. A heated, anti-reflective coated optical window reduces the risk of condensation on the front glass.
