Altair GPCAM3 715C Colour camera is a high resolution 8.3 megapixel, BSI colour camera with extremely low read noise. This next generation Sony IMX715 sensor can be used for high speed solar system imaging, or even video astronomy and deepsky imaging with a small refractor, thanks to the small pixel size. The 1/2.8-inch optical format is quite suitable for an Allsky camera lens (sold separately).

The ROI (Region of Interest) feature can be used for even higher frame rates when imaging the planets, sun or moon at high magnification.
