ZWO ASI585MC Pro

The ZWO ASI585MC Pro is a powerful color camera for astrophotographers seeking maximum performance with active cooling. With the modern Sony IMX585 CMOS sensor, this camera offers razor-sharp images of planets, the moon and even deep-sky objects such as nebulae and galaxies.

What makes this camera unique is its combination of high resolution, speed and sensitivity - without disturbing amplifier glow (amp glow). Its small pixels of 2.9 µm allow you to achieve stunning resolution even with telescopes as small as f/10. Perfect for detail-rich shots, without the need for a Barlow.

Key features

• Sony IMX585 sensor (8.3 MP) - high resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels
• Pixel size of 2.9 µm - Ideal match for f/10 telescopes such as Maksutovs
• Full amp glow-free - clean images, even at longer exposures
• Frame rate up to 47 fps - sharpness by stacking or real-time observation
• Active Peltier cooling down to -35 °C - low noise even at summer temperatures

Applications

✓ Detailed planetary photography with high frame rate
✓ Capture lunar disk and solar disk in full resolution (with solar filter)
✓ Photographing deep-sky objects with long exposures
✓ Taking IR shots to minimize seeing
✓ Live stacking or EAA thanks to high sensitivity and noise reduction
✓ Reliable sensor performance with temperature control

The ASI585MC Pro is ideally suited for demanding astrophotographers who want to work without noise or artifacts. Active cooling and precise temperature control make this camera an excellent choice for both planets and deep-sky.
