Last night I had somewhat better seeing than the night before so my tests of the new IMG1024S Dream Machine continued but with somewhat better results. I ended...
Nice Job Richard, That's a great camera for that scope, .86 should be very doable, I am looking forward to your post at that focal length. I have a CS 4.5 HA...

that's a nice tricolor emission line image Didier. Although you call it a mapped color image, so is an rgb image, an LRGB image, an artifically colored...
Looks nice and deep RC. But, the jpg is very small and does not tell us much about the optics. It looks a little soft. Focus ?? Doc G ... From: Richard...
the seeing has been very bad on the west coast every night this week. the jet stream is not doing me many favors except for clearing the skies. the fov is what...
I get it RC. I forgot about the pixel size. I should have well remembered since we have the same chip. Your other images have well shown the excellent...
Ah yes, you have the good old Tektronix chip. That is a nice chip. As you indicate, a one Meg pix chip is probably a thing of the past. I have the KAF1001...
The KAF1001 reaches about 65% Q.E., and is still 50% out at 800nm. There isn't that much left (<2x) even with the perfect detector. Peter ... As you indicate,...

look in the files section for the ZIP archive the QE curve for the E2V is shown for -20C operation for the Tektronix TK1024, it is shown for room temperature...
Interesting post as usual. The 47-10 might be a nice starter chip if it came for $5K. I will stay happy with the 1001 for the time being. Even a perfect...
you didn't say who was funding the effort so if cost isn't that important: http://www.fairchildimaging.com/products/fpa/ccd/area/ccd_486.htm couple that to...

The Lumenera 2-2 camera, which I have, uses a Sony chip. It is really a very nice camera. I am seriously looking at a camera with the KAI 4021M chip. It has...
Doc G Starlight Xpress also makes a camera with the KAI 4021M chip. It runs about $5,400. I have been using the prototype camera, but they have it in...
Hi Charlie Thanks for this reference. I like the results you are presenting very much. I will look into this camera since the size of the camera and price is...
The Cygnus Wall feature is a popular object in the North American Nebula, and bounds the dark nebula of the "Gulf of Mexico". Here I have attempted to...
Richard Very nice tadpoles. Very contrasty image. The dream machine seems to be working like a - well - "dream". Sounds like your resolution with the larger...
