Efficient imaging through the atmosphere

The planetary camera ZWO ASI533MC features Sony’s latest back-illuminated IMX 533 Sensor, high sensitivity, and zero glow.                    With a 1-inch square sensor format, it’s ideal for astronomical photography.

One-inch square frame

The IMX533is a 1-inch square format that is ideal for astronomical imaging needs with a 3.76um pixel size, capable of producing 20 frames/sec in 14bit mode. readout noise is as low as 1.0e which makes it comparable to SCMOS or EMCCD sensors and highly suitable for high-definition, low-noise imaging.

STARVIS

ZWO ASI533MC can be regarded as an upgrade product to the ASI183 Series. It’s equipped with SONY STARVIS CMOS sensor, which has a better shooting effect at night. It has the advantage of zero amp glow, large full well, low readout noise, and high dynamic range.

USB 3.0 and 256M DDR Memory

The ASI 533 is equipped with a USB 3.0 interface, and the 256MB DDR memory ensures stable downloading of frames with increased USB speeds and effectively reduces the glow effect caused by slow readout speed

Zero Amp Glow

ZWO ASI533MC uses a no glow circuitry to ensure the best quality images regardless of the gain value or exposure length
