The ZWO ASI178MC-Cool is a 6.4 M pixel color CMOS camera with a Sony STARVIS IMX178 sensor and a two-stage TEC cooling system that allows the matrix temperature to drop by ?T = 35-40 ° C.
The camera is characterized by very low noise and high sensitivity, being a very advanced tool for astronomical photography and in high-resolution microscope photography.

Note: cameras with cooling require a 12V power supply. If you do not have it - you can buy a dedicated power supply for the ZWO camera in our store.
The heating band dedicated to the ZWO camera solves the problem of dew on the camera's front glass - you should consider purchasing this item.
