QSI_500_Series

500 Series Scientific Medium Format Digital Cameras

The QSI 500 Series is a family of medium format, thermo-electrically cooled CCD cameras designed to produce high quality images with extremely wide dynamic range, excellent linearity and exceptionally low noise. Seven different models are available employing a comprehensive range of monochrome and single-shot color scientific grade CCDs. A variety of options and accessories are available to meet your specific astronomical, medical or industrial imaging objectives.

The superb imaging performance of 500 Series cameras is wrapped in an attractive, compact design with outstanding power efficiency and investment protecting upgradeability. The refined engineering and impressive fit, finish and attention to detail will surpass your highest expectations.

500 Series cameras are now available with an Integrated Guider Port 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.
