SBIG STT-8300M Camera with Standard Filter Wheel Pro Package, 3326x2504 Pixel Array, 10 MP/Sec Digitization Rate, USB 2.0 and Ethernet Interface

Find the perfect balance of high resolution and versatility with the SBIG STT-8300M Camera, complete with a Standard Filter Wheel Pro Package. This advanced camera system is built around Kodak's KAF-8300, a full-frame CCD with an impressive 8.3-megapixel capacity. The CCD array boasts 3326 x 2504 pixels at 5.4 microns, making it an ideal choice for capturing detailed images with both short, fast optics in high-resolution mode and longer focal lengths when binned 2 x 2 or 3 x 3.

The STT-8300M Camera is equipped with both antiblooming and micro lens technology, enhancing the effective Quantum Efficiency of the sensor. This feature allows the camera to be utilized in a broad range of optical configurations, making it a versatile choice for various photography needs.

What sets the STT-8300M Camera apart is its unique filter wheel design, specifically tailored for STT-8300 sets. The carousel can accommodate eight 36 mm filters, with inserts available for 1.25" and 31 mm filters. The filter wheel also features a positive centering mechanism, ensuring precise re-positioning and firm holding of filters over the CCD, regardless of the number of carousel rotations.

In rigorous testing, the re-positioning of filters proved to be accurate to better than one pixel (5.4 microns) using an STT-8300, even after several complete rotations of the filter carousel. This level of precision ensures that flat fields taken after the filter has moved and returned are virtually accurate to the level of a single pixel.

Experience the blend of high-resolution imaging and versatile functionality with the SBIG STT-8300M Camera with Standard Filter Wheel Pro Package, a top choice for professional photographers and enthusiasts alike.
