Moravian Instruments C2-12000A CMOS camera with Sony IMX304 sensor

Global shutter CMOS sensor 4112 × 3008 pixels, USB 3.0 interface

The cooled C2 series global shutter CMOS cameras were developed for imaging under extremely low-light conditions in astronomy, microscopy and similar areas. Mechanical design of this series inherits from earlier CCD-based G2 Mark II cameras, which makes the C2 series fully compatible with vast range of telescope adapters, off-axis guider adapters, internal or external filter wheels, Camera Ethernet adapters, guiding cameras etc.

In the Box

Components of C2 Camera system include:

C2 camera head with Internal Filter Wheel (5 or 6 positions)
C2 camera head capable to control External Filter Wheel
External Filter Wheel “XS” size (7 or 8 positions)
External Filter Wheel “S” size (10 or 12 positions)
C1 guider camera

Remark:

C1 cameras are completely independent devices with their own USB connection to the host PC. They can be used either on C2 OAG or on standalone guiding telescope.

C1 cameras can share the Moravian Camera Ethernet Adapter with up to 3 other Cx cameras to be accessed over TCP/IP network.
Off-Axis Guider with M48 × 0.75 thread
Off-Axis Guider with M42 × 0.75 thread (T2)
Thick adapter base, compensating EFW thickness to achieve proper back focal distance for cameras without filter wheel
1.75” dovetail rail for C2 camera head
Camera Ethernet Adapter (x86 CPU)
Camera Ethernet Adapter (ARM CPU)

Remark:

Moravian Camera Ethernet Adapter allows connection of up to 4 Cx cameras of any type on the one side and 1 Gbps Ethernet on the other side. This adapter allows access to connected Cx cameras using routable TCP/IP protocol over unlimited distance.
5-positions internal filter wheel for 1.25”/D31 mm filters
6-positions internal filter wheel for 1”/D27 mm filters
8-positions external filter wheel “XS” for 1.25”/D31 mm filters
7-positions external filter wheel “XS” for D36 mm filters
12-positions external filter wheel “S” for 1.25”/D31 mm filters
10-positions external filter wheel “S” for D36 mm filters
7-positions external filter wheel “S” for 2”/D50 mm filters
M42 × 0.75 (T-thread) or M48 × 0.75 threaded adapters, 55 mm BFD

Remark:

Other standard adapters are available, for instance threaded 2" barrel adapter etc.
Canon EOS bayonet lens adapter
Nikon bayonet lens adapter
