The Revolution in Deep Sky Observing
On this web site you will find the latest frame-integration video cameras, which are revolutionising the observation of deep sky objects with amateur telescopes. The cameras extend the magnitude limit of telescopes by up to 4 magnitudes. For example, a Mintron camera and an 8 inch scope will show, on live TV, ALL the objects visible through the eyepiece of a 24 inch telescope. But perhaps more importantly, the cameras make smaller, more portable, telescopes into effective scientific instruments.
When used with amateur telescopes, these cameras reveal stars at least 3 to 3.5 magnitudes, fainter than can be seen using an eyepiece. For this reason, many amateurs purchase these cameras rather than an expensive eyepiece for deep sky use. Others use the cameras with smaller scopes, to achieve a powerful, easy, set up.
Especially for those astronomers living under polluted skies, these cameras will make deep sky observing a possibility for the first time, and a real pleasure. You can even do your observing from indoors, out of the cold. The cameras have also proved to be an invaluable resource for astronomy centres, observatories, and anyone who wants to display the beauty of the heavens to an audience. Easy to set up (just plug in to your TV) and use, not requiring expensive mounts, nor accurate tracking, and giving a sparkling performance with even small telescopes, these cameras will widen and change your observations in so many ways.
