Product Reviews Of ATIK Instruments 11000C Color CCD Camera with Kodak KAI 11002 CCD Specification
  • While the other cameras in the ATIK range use Sony sensors, the large-format cameras incorporate Kodak devices
  • These have gained a great reputation in astrophotography and offer qualities not available in the Sony CCDs
  • The Kodak sensors require dark frames to be used for calibration, and these must be taken at the same temperature as the primary image
  • For more demanding use, water can be pumped though the camera's internal heat exchanger. When water cooling is employed, the maximum amount of cooling depends on the water temperature, with approximately 45 degrees of cooling being available using water from a typical cold tap
  • Such efficient cooling cuts thermal noise to an absolute minimum and reduces the prevalence of hot pixels, but it raises the risk of condensation forming in or on the camera
