ZWO ASI585MM Mono

The ZWO ASI585MM Mono is a black and white camera for astrophotography with impressive sensitivity, resolution and speed - ideal for those who want to capture every detail. Thanks to the advanced Sony IMX585 CMOS sensor, this camera captures razor-sharp images of the moon, planets and deep-sky objects such as nebulae and galaxies.

What sets this camera apart is its amp glow-free sensor. That means: no disturbing glow at longer exposures, so a cleaner and sharper image - even in darker parts of the shot. The fine 2.9 µm pixels already provide maximum detail at f/10, without the need for a Barlow lens. And although the camera has no active cooling, the temperature remains under control thanks to smart heat conduction via PCS.

Key features

• Sony IMX585 sensor (8.3 MP, monochrome) - resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels
• Amp glow-free sensor - no disturbing glow in long exposures
• Pixel size of 2.9 µm - Perfect for f/10 telescopes such as Maksutovs
• Frame rate up to 47 fps - ideal for stacking and real-time observation
• Smart heat conduction (PCS) - sensor stays cool without active cooling

Applications

✓ Planet and moon photography with maximum sharpness
✓ Capturing solar disk in detail (with appropriate solar filter)
✓ Deep-sky astrophotography without amplifier glow
✓ Infrared shots to reduce air vibrations
✓ Suitable for EAA and autoguiding

The ASI585MM is an excellent choice for photographers who prefer to work with monochrome images for maximum control and sharpness. With the absence of color filters and high sensitivity, this camera delivers exceptional raw data for stacking, post-processing and scientific applications.
