QSI 520 Scientific
Cooled CCD Camera

The standard 520i model camera employs a 2 megapixel Kodak interline transfer CCD image sensor with microlens technology. The high quantum efficiency, wide dynamic range and low noise performance make the 520i ideally suited to a broad range of demanding astronomical, scientific and industrial imaging applications.

The 500 series sets a new benchmark for compact design and power efficiency in a high performance, full-featured scientific CCD camera. With optional features and upgradeability, the 520i can be tailored to fit your needs today and in the future.

The 520 camera system is supported by industry leading image acquisition software and development tools are available for creating custom Windows or Linux imaging applications.

The QSI 520wsg is now available with an integral Off-Axis Guider allowing you to guide using the light from your main telescope while picking off the light from the guide star in front of the filters.
