The ZWO ASI183MC is a cooled color astronomy camera with small pixels for resolving fine details in deep sky astrophotography. It uses a 20.1-megapixel Sony IMX183 back-illuminated CMOS sensor with 5496x3672 resolution and 2.4-micron pixel size, ideal for capturing high-resolution color images of deep-sky objects such as nebulae, supernova remnants, and galaxies, as well as lunar and solar images. Integrated TEC cooling reduces sensor temperature to 40C-45C below ambient to enable low-noise imaging of fainter deep-sky objects, with fast USB3.0 transfer at up to 19 fps at maximum resolution. The compact body features a 78mm diameter and weighs only 410 g (14.5 oz).
