The C0 and C1 series cameras with global shutter CMOS sensors were designed to be small, lightweight imagers for Moon and planets and for automatic telescope guiding. With proper image calibration, these cameras provide surprisingly good results also in entry-level deep-sky imaging. The used CMOS sensors response to light is linear up to very close to saturation point. So, the C0 and C1 cameras can be used for some entry-level scientific applications for instance in the variable star research etc. The C0 and C1 cameras share majority of features, like the used sensors, USB interface, autoguider port, etc. At the first view, the only difference is the size of camera body.

 

But greater dimensions of the C1 models allowed adding of some features, not available on the C0 cameras, like cooling fan and mounting threaded holes.
