The controlled setting of the desired camera temperature allows you to create dark frames under reproducible shooting conditions at any time. The large format COMOS sensor with 21.9mm diagonal also allows large image fields and simplifies the setting and centering of objects considerably. The camera has a built-in USB hub on the back with 2 x USB 2.0 ports. Connect your additional car guider camera or motor focus etc. via short USB cable and thus reduce the risk of tangled cables and cable breaks. This eliminates the need for separate cable connections of your accessories to your computer. A sturdy hard case for the camera plus accessories is also included.
