Meade DSI PRO (Deep Sky Imager) Monochrome w/RGB Color Filter Set - PROMO SPECIAL - MUST BE PURCHASED WITH QUALIFYING TELESCOPE

Capture the Stars!

The new Deep Sky Imager PRO is the latest innovation from Meade Instruments. Designed with the intermediate to advanced amateur astrophotographer in mind, the Deep Sky Imager PRO is 2.3 times as sensitive and has four times the resolution of the color Deep Sky Imager. The high-performance, easy-to-use, monochrome, CCD camera allows every astronomer to shoot and process stunning, deep-sky images of galaxies, nebulae, star clusters and planets. Equipped with Meade's high-quality RGB filter set, it also produces dazzling color (RGB and LRGB) images.

High-sensitivity CCD sensor

Utilizing a high-sensitivity, monochrome CCD sensor from Sonyﾮ, the Meade Deep Sky Imager PRO incorporates a 16-bit A/D converter to produce images with incredibly low noise levels and broader dynamic range.

High-speed PC connection

The DSI PRO uses a USB 2.0 High Speed connection that allows fast data transfer. Actual download time for daytime or planetary imaging is up to 5 frames per second. For longer exposures, the download time is .5 frames per second in order to sustain a high signal-to-noise ratio. There is virtually no delay between the time the image is taken and the time it appears on your computer screen. The Deep Sky Imager PRO is also backward-compatible with USB 1.1.

Multiple-imager operation

Meade's new AutoStar Suite will support any number of Deep Sky Imagers and one LPI. You can use a separate guide scope and Deep Sky Imager as well as having one for prime focus and wide field. Any of the imagers can be selected for guiding. The sky's the limit with this imager. The only performance constraints will be the speed of your computer, the amount of RAM it has and availability of USB ports. A 2Ghz PC with 512 MB of memory can easily run three Deep Sky PRO Imagers.

The Deep Sky Imager PRO: it captures stars in hurry!
