SVBONY SV305C IMX662 Astronomy Camera for Planetary & Lunar Imaging

SV305C

Una gran mejora respecto de la SV305 Tengo una SV305 que es estupenda pero la SV305C es una gran evolución.

Very good all round camera. I have used this camera on Planets and some Galaxies and it did great. The gain range is very good and can be used for terrestrial targets. A very basic, goto camera.

exellent rapport qualité prix cette camera est un excellent rapport qualité prix , fonctionne très en planétaire et même en ciel profond , mais c'est sa fonction autoguidage qui est un vrai plus avec PHD2 ça marche nickel (pilote ascom disponible sur le site SVBONY) . je recommande cette camera a ceux qui veulent commencer a faire de l'astrophotographie

schnelle lieferung, sehr guter verarbeitung. gute kamera, macht was sie soll, mit gutem equiment von telesop ,bei mir slt127 von celestron und svbony 90 macht sie ihren job mehr als zu genüge, kann sie nur weiteremfehlen,man muss sich nur mit dem programm intensiv beschäftigen.

buen productobuen producto Buen producto para astro fotógrafos aficionados, no es fácil ver bien porque hay que saber configurar el programa sharpcap y hay pocos tutoriales en español, una vez conseguido, esa que adjunto es mi primera foto, hacen falta filtros para quitar ruidos y humedad ambiental. muy buena compra, rápido en la entrega y bien embalado.

Great camera. Very good photo quality I got the camera yesterday. I uploaded a photo I took of Jupiter with a 10-inch Newtonian telescope. Looks just great. The truth is that I was very surprised by the quality of the photography. What is important is to work with the right software. I highly recommend AstroDMx Capture. She's free and does a great job.

Working great so far. It's my first dedicated camera for a telescope. I'm running this on an older laptop I7-3610QE w/ 8GB. Using AstroDMX. Install/config was a breeze. Where I had some difficulties was focusing the camera with my Celestron Astromaster 90EQ. Without the upright an extension tube is required even with a Barlow. Using the upright made focusing easier but it did cause major fringing. The thing I wasn't prepared for is the annihilation of disk space when capturing. it might be only 2mp but this thing will gobble up 2-3GB/min when you let it loose.

Good sensor, some learning curve to get the best out of itGood sensor, some learning curve to get the best out of it The sensor is excellent, very sensitive, improvements being made to drivers to fix some glitches changing between settings in Sharpcap but its a relatively new camera . The latest Sharpcap 4.1 released this week helped a lot. It will make a good guide camera.

Muy buen producto, cumplió con lo esperado.

Great for guiding and planetary!Great for guiding and planetary! Fantastic camera for the price! I use it as both my guide camera and planetary camera. Guiding has been incredible with it attached to a 60mm guide scope on top of my Celestron 8SE. Works great when imaging planets at native f10 and with added 2x or 3x barlows. No issues with NINA or PHD2 when connected via ASCOM and SharpCap recognizes it directly. Only issue I encountered was it kept disconnecting from my imaging software while in use. I realized it only happened when the USB was plugged into my powered USB hub and not when it was plugged directly into my laptop. Not sure why but it’s not a big deal. I’m sure there won’t be any issues once I switch to a setup with a mini PC or Pegasus Powerbox.

High quality and good value Fantastic little astronomy camera- you will need a laptop and some free software, so there is a learning curve, but this is a great piece of kit

Great for the price, but tiny sensor, therefore very magnified I don't have much experience with this yet, so I am sure with some effort it is very possible to get much better images than the ones that I attached, especially the one of Saturn since I suck at planetary imaging. It was very easy to connect to SharpCap and there are no problems imaging. I would estimate that, with my 130SLT, the field of view was about 15x27 arcminutes. Edit: Added some new photos, as I predicted, experience with the camera brings great results!

"Good as a starting CCD planetary camera, but best as a guide camera for larger 'scopes and imagers. I hade been using the SVBONY SV305 CCD camera on my Meade telescope and was quite impressed with it, but when I saw this Pro version, I had to try it to take advantage of the faster uploads to my laptop. The SC305 Pro is quite a bit different from the standard SV305, but at a higher price, of course. To start with, the presentation of the camera is a lot better with the Pro: you get a nice box, plus a real user manual (instead of a folded piece of paper). At it's heart, it's still the same 2MP CCD and 128MB SSD RAM, but it now supports USB 3.0 and hence communicates faster with the laptop, good for both downloading bunches of images taken in bursts, as well as better guiding when you use the CCD as a guide camera. Software is downloadable for PCs and Linux machines/ I tried the SV305 Pro as a guide camera on a few objects, feeding from the CCD to the laptop to the mount of my Meade. In guide mode, it worked really well: identify the guide object (usually a star) and leave the unit alone. For extended exposures, this worked really well. I would not use the 2MP CCD for deep-space imaging, as it simply doesn't have the resolution needed, but as a guide camera it is easy to use and worked perfectly, guiding my 12-inch Meaded for long-term exposures of Messier objects and other deep-sky items. As a primary camera itself, it works well on planetary objects, and produced excellent shots of the moon. 2MP allows decent blow-ups of planetary objects, but not deeper items. Exposures up to 30 minutes let you get decent stackable images of objects like Jupiter and Mars. While the non-Pro SV305 could overload with burst image transfers, occasionally losing an image or failing, this never happened with the Pro.

Works very well with my Explore One Aurora II Loved it. Super easy to figure out once you click enough buttons in the software to see what they do, and the results blew anything I've ever done with a cellphone mount out of the sky.
