Celestron NexImage Burst Monochrome CCD Eyepiece Camera (1.25")

The NexImage Burst Monochrome CCD Eyepiece Camera from Celestron is a monochrome astroimager designed to capture images of the Sun, Moon, and planets with our solar system. It's compatible with any computerized telescope or a non-computerized telescope with a tracking motor drive. Use the 1.25" nosepiece to quickly swap the NexImage with an eyepiece, or directly connect it to a C-mount back.

A Aptina AR0132AT monochrome CMOS sensor captures 1280 x 960 resolution images with exposure speeds from 1 second to as fast as 0.0001 of second. Using a monochrome imager lets you attach filters or filter wheels to capture specific color images then you're able to matte and layer with imaging software to create customized color images. The included Registax software analyzes each frame of video, throws away the ones affected by atmospheric turbulence, and perfectly aligns the best frames. With the ability to tweak settings such as the gamma, sharpness, RGB balance, and color mixing, the resulting image is bright, clear, and focused.
