ZWO ASI385MC Astronomy Camera for Solar-System and Deep-Sky Imaging
The ZWO ASI385MC color astronomy camera is built around Sony’s high-sensitivity IMX385LQR CMOS sensor. With a resolution of 2.13 megapixels, this one-shot color camera is ideal for capturing images of planets, the Moon and Sun. The reduced amp glow of this camera also makes it ideal for capturing images of smaller deep-sky objects and for electronically-assisted astronomy (EAA) applications.
The ASI385MC has twice the sensitivity of the ZWO ASI185MC camera. It also has a larger sensor than the ZWO ASI224MC camera, which means it can image a wider field of view for a given focal length, but it retains the same small 3.75-micron pixel size for high resolution. The 7.3mm x 4.1mm sensor (1/1.9”) has a resolution of 1936x1096, a read noise of 0.7e and a full well capacity of 18,700e to allow imaging of a wide range of celestial objects with low noise and minimal pixel saturation.
The ASI385MC uses a USB3.0 port for fast data transfer, a critical feature for getting sharp images of fast-rotating planets. At full 1936x1096 resolution, the camera captures data as fast as 120fps (in 10-bit ADC high speed mode) or 67fps (in 12-bit ADC normal mode). It also includes an ST4 port if you want to use the camera as an autoguider.
The uncooled ZWO ASI385MC camera comes with an AR-coated window to protect the sensor. It also includes an ST-4 cable, USB3.0 cable, 1.25” cover, 1.25” nosepiece, and a quick-start guide. The camera weighs just 120g (4.2oz) and has a diameter of 62mm.
This camera can be configured with the following connections for attachment to telescopes and imaging accessories:
- 1.25” nosepiece
- 2” nosepiece (composed of 2 or 3 included adapters)
- Female T/T2 thread (M42x0.75)
- Female C/CS thread (1”x32TPI)
- Female M28.5x0.6 thread
ZWO has phased out software CDs, but this camera comes with instructions to download the required control software and drivers directly from the ZWO website.
