About this item

This is the top-of-the-range camera available from ATIK and is the result of extensive design and development. It incorporates a huge 35mmx35mm sensor. This is the camera for the uncompromising user looking to create stunning high-resolution images.

The ATIK 11000MONO uses the Kodak KAI 11002 CCD and comes in mono versions. It is difficult to get an impression of just how big the sensor is without seeing it first hand, but the graphic below is intended to give some idea. The resulting images can be amazingly detailed, and can be printed out at A3 size or beyond or simply enjoyed on a computer monitor.

Key Features

  • While the other cameras in the ATIK range use Sony sensors, the large-format cameras incorporate Kodak devices
  • These have gained a great reputation in astrophotography and offer qualities not available in the Sony CCDs
  • The Kodak sensors require dark frames to be used for calibration, and these must be taken at the same temperature as the primary image
  • For more demanding use, water can be pumped though the camera's internal heat exchanger. When water cooling is employed, the maximum amount of cooling depends on the water temperature, with approximately 45 degrees of cooling being available using water from a typical cold tap
  • Such efficient cooling cuts thermal noise to an absolute minimum and reduces the prevalence of hot pixels, but it raises the risk of condensation forming in or on the camera
  • A high-efficiency desiccant is used to dry the air inside the sensor chamber, preventing internal condensation, while condensation on the outside of the camera is avoided with the use of heater elements which gently warm the window
  • The power supplied to this heater is controllable through software so that it can be adapted to the environmental conditions
  • The ATIK large-format cameras have been designed and built to fulfil the needs of the most demanding users, whilst offering an unparalleled simplicity of use
  • The cameras have only two sockets - a 2.1mm socket for the 12V power supply and a USB2 port for communicating with the computer - and they are compatible with ATIK's highly acclaimed Capture software as well as AstroArt, CCDSoft and MaximDL
