Spectral Sensitivity aka FAQ

Blogged by profjohn in FAQ on August 13, 2007 at 16:47 CET.

Many DMK users both in and out of the Astronomy business have called and written in recently questioning me on the spectral sensitivity and quantum efficiency of The Imaging Source cameras. Well, most if not all of these questions are answered by me pointing the DMK user to what we at The Imaging Source refer to as our “The White Papers“. This extensive collection of references include topics on basics optics, CCD electronics, and color interpolation. Although not deemed a DMK users manual, the material covered is extensive and well worth a look for all of The Imaging Source clients.

    Can these camera chips reach the Ha of 657.3 Nm? I need a camera that will show a live, and TRUE Ha image using a SolarMax 60 scope.

    I have a Stellacam II and its Sony chip is not that sensive to Ha light, hence the ImageSource might be?

    Reply to my email.

    Thanks,

    James

    Hi James,

    I’ve used my DMK 21AF04.AS with a solarmax 60
    You can see the results at…

    I’ve also done lunar & deep sky imaging with it as well – it’s a superb little camera.

    David.
