USED Celestron NexImage 5 Solar System Imager

Capture high resolution 5MP planetary, lunar and solar system images with the NexImage 5. Combined with the included software package, the NexImage 5 can bring out tremendous detail and produce images that will rival those taken with astronomical cameras costing hundreds more. The NexImage 5 connects to any telescope that features a 1.25" eyepiece barrel and takes position of the eyepiece.

Celestron NexImage 5 Solar System Imager additional information:

Simply point your telescope at the Moon or a planet and record a quick video. The included software analyzes each frame of video, throws away the fuzzy ones, and perfectly aligns the remaining images. The result is a bright, clear image with the maximum amount of color and detail. NexImage 5 is a great way to get started with astroimaging, especially if you live in a light-polluted area. If you can see the planet, you can image it with NexImage 5.

Quick Overview:

• 5 Megapixel colour sensor with Micron DigitalClarity technology to dramatically reduce image noise levels
• Small pixels sizes provide sub arc-second planetary detail with most telescopes
• View and capture live video on your computer. Software automatically filters out video frames most affected by poor atmospheric "seeing"
• Leaving only the sharpest, clearest frames to be tacked and aligned into one high quality image
• Machined aluminium 1.25" adapter barrel makes NexImage compatible with most any telescope
• Barrel accepts standard 1.25" eyepiece filters
