SBIG ST-3200ME Single Sensor, Lightweight USB 2.0 Camera with KAF-3200ME Class 1 CCD, Enhanced Cooling

The ST-3200ME is essentially the same camera as the ST-402ME except that the imaging CCD is over 4X larger and it has more than 8X the number of pixels. The ST-3200ME uses the KAF-3200ME CCD, the same sensor used in the ST-10XME. This CCD is 2184 x 1472 pixels at 6.8 microns. However, due to the size of the array, the internal filter wheel cannot be used.

For color or photometric applications the CFW10-SA can be used with standard 1.25" filters. The ST-3200ME, like the ST-1603ME, is intended primarily for industrial and life science applications where a faster download rate is more important than maximum cooling or self-guiding. Of course it will also perform very well for astronomical applications, particularly where an external guider is already available.
