CMOS 技术具有低读出噪声和高速读出的优势，彻底改变了天文成像。单色、背照式、高灵敏度的天文成像相机是天文成像者的理想选择。

QHY268M/C 是新一代背照式 CMOS 相机，具有真正的 16 位 A/D 和 3.76um 像素。这款索尼新传感器是一款理想的 CMOS 传感器，不会出现放大器辉光。16 位 A/D 可对整个满阱范围进行高分辨率采样。数字化 0-65535 级别可产生具有连续灰度等级的平滑图像。QHY268M/C 是一款基于索尼 IMX571 传感器的冷却背照式 CMOS 相机，具有原生 16 位 A/D 和 3.76um 像素。

1GB DDR3 图像缓冲区

为了保证整个26MP传感器的高速不间断的数据传输，QHY268拥有1GB DDR3图像缓冲区。最新一代CMOS传感器的像素数非常高，对临时和永久存储的内存要求也更大。QHY268采用了高达1GB的大容量内存，数据吞吐量翻倍。这种超大的图像缓冲区满足了新一代CMOS高速图像采集和传输的需求，使得多帧拍摄更加流畅，卡顿更少，进一步减轻了电脑CPU的压力。

内部湿度传感器

QHY268M 有一个独特的内部湿度传感器（而 QHY268C 没有）。下图中的蓝色曲线表示湿度。

原生 16 位 A/D：新款索尼传感器片上具有原生 16 位 A/D。输出为真正的 16 位，具有65536 个级别。与 12 位和 14 位 A/D 相比，16 位 A/D 可产生更高的采样分辨率，系统增益将小于 1e-/ADU，没有采样误差噪声，读取噪声非常低。

BSI：背照式 CMOS 结构的一个优点是提高了满阱容量。这对于像素较小的传感器尤其有用。在典型的前照式传感器中，来自目标进入传感器感光层的光子必须首先穿过嵌入在感光层正上方的金属布线。布线结构会反射部分光子并降低传感器的效率。在背照式传感器中，光线可以从背面进入感光表面。在这种情况下，传感器的嵌入式布线结构位于感光层下方。因此，更多的入射光子撞击感光层，并在像素阱中产生和捕获更多的电子。光子与电子产生的比率称为量子效率。量子效率越高，传感器将光子转换为电子的效率就越高，因此传感器对捕捉暗淡物体图像的灵敏度就越高。

零放大辉光：这也是一款零放大辉光相机。

真正的 RAW 数据：在 DSLR 实现中，有一个 RAW 图像输出，但通常不是完全 RAW。仔细检查仍可见一些降噪和热像素去除的痕迹。这可能会对天文学图像产生负面影响，例如“吞星”效应。然而，QHY 相机提供真正的 RAW 图像输出，并生成仅由原始信号组成的图像，从而为采集后的天文图像处理程序和其他科学成像应用保持最大的灵活性。

防结露技术：基于近 20 年的冷却相机设计经验，QHY 冷却相机实现了全面的结露控制解决方案。光学窗口内置结露加热器，可防止腔体内湿气凝结。腔体窗口的电加热板可防止结露，传感器本身通过我们的硅胶管插座设计保持干燥，以控制传感器腔内的湿度。

冷却：除了双级 TE 冷却之外，QHYCCD 还在硬件上实现了专有技术来控制暗电流噪声。

CMOS 技术具有低读出噪声和高速读出的优势，彻底改变了天文成像。单色、背照式、高灵敏度的天文成像相机是天文成像者的理想选择。QHY600M-L 使用最新的 SONY 背照式传感器 IMX455，这是一款全画幅（35 毫米格式）传感器，像素为 3.76 微米，原生 16 位 A/D。此传感器有单色和彩色版本。QHY600C-PH SBFL 结束了非 16 位 CMOS 相机的时代，也结束了非全画幅（及更大）单色 CMOS 相机的时代。

QHY600C-PH SBFL 采用 SONY 的 Exmor BSI CMOS 技术，具有极低的暗电流（0.002e/p/s@-20C）。QHY600C-PH SBFL 还是一款零放大型辉光相机。QHY600C-PH SBFL 在高增益和全分辨率以及 4FPS 读出速度下仅有一个电子的读出噪声。一个电子的读出噪声意味着相机仅需 4 到 6 个光子即可实现 SNR>3。当光子受限时（即短曝光、窄带成像等），这种性能堪称完美，使这款大面积传感器成为巡天、时间域天文学、荧光成像、DNA 测序和显微镜的理想选择。

模型

QHY600系列有多种型号，涵盖摄影和科学用途。以下列出了不同类型的QHY600 PH（摄影）系列：

QHY600PH ：业余天文摄影师的标准版本；

QHY600PH-SBFL (短后焦版) ：专为单反镜头用户或者对短后焦有特殊要求的用户设计。此版本有一个特殊的前部版本，后焦距只有14mm（连接QHYCFW时消耗的后焦距为12.5mm。关于“后焦距消耗”的定义和我们的转接系统请查看： https ://www.qhyccd.com/astronomical-camera-adapter-bfl-solution/ ）。QHY600SBFL可以轻松匹配佳能/尼康镜头，甚至带滤镜轮。此转接器的侧面有一个4mm的孔，必要时可以通过塑料管连接气泵，以防玻璃结露。

QHY600L：精简版，更短，更便宜。QHY600PH-Lite与QHY600PH相比，有以下特点：QHY600L只有单色版本；机身长度变短，约为112mm，价格较QHY600PH有所降低；内置DDR3 Buffer（内存存储）由QHY600PH/Pro的2GB调整为1GB。QHY600L除机身长度和重量外，其他规格与QHY600PH相同。

新型 CFW3 系列滤光轮有四种尺寸，可适应从 1.25 英寸到 50 平方毫米的滤光片。

对于滤光轮控制，包含一个定制的 QHY 4 针滤光轮端口，可为 QHY 双控制滤光轮（如 3 系列滤光轮）提供电源和控制信号。2 系列和新 3 系列滤光轮均可通过独立的外部程序（使用滤光轮的 USB 端口）或通过 QHY 4 针串行端口进行控制。连接到 QHY 4 针端口时，无需额外的电源线或控制程序。所有滤光轮功能均通过相机及其操作软件进行控制。

系列 3 滤光轮采用直接驱动的新电机，在从一个滤光片移动到另一个滤光片时会反向移动以采用最短路径。例如，在此演示中，轮子从滤光片位置 1 移动到位置 2，再移动到位置 3，然后再回到位置 1，再移动到位置 7，再回到位置 1，而无需旋转一圈。如果您在一次成像过程中进行大量滤光片更换，这可以节省时间。

LED 会根据滤镜位置改变颜色。三色 LED 为每个滤镜位置分配一种独特的颜色或颜色组合，这样您就可以知道它是否移动到了正确的位置，而无需将其从望远镜中取出。

CFW3 也很薄。这一特点和 COLDMOS 相机的短后焦距意味着您可以添加多个相机镜头适配器之一，用于佳能和尼康相机镜头，以便使用滤光轮进行广角成像。

背板中央有一个 12 伏直流电源端口。此端口带有螺纹，用于连接随相机提供的短延长线，该延长线可牢固连接，以免在成像时意外断开。

QHY183C 是专为天文摄影初学者设计的型号。它具有出色的灵敏度和低噪音，背照式 QHY183C 具有更高的灵敏度和更高的分辨率。它非常适合行星和深空成像，特别是与 CFW3 滤光轮配合使用时。该型号具有两级热电冷却功能，可将传感器温度降至环境温度以下约零下 40 摄氏度，以最大限度地降低长时间曝光时的暗电流噪音。

QHY183 采用了 QHY 的 Anti-Amp Glow 技术，将典型的 CMOS 放大器辉光显著降低到最低限度，通过减去暗帧实现出色的校准。

QHY183 采用了 QHY COLDMOS 相机常见的防露功能。露水是从空气中凝结到腔室窗口外部的水分。霜是与腔室窗口内部或传感器表面接触时结冰的水蒸气。QHY 拥有近 20 年设计冷却相机的经验，这些型号受益于多年的防露和防霜设计经验。为了防止在腔室窗口上形成露水，加热元件内置于腔室正上方的遮光罩中。为了避免腔室内形成霜冻，提供了干燥剂管，用户可以轻松地将其连接到相机外部，以干燥腔室内部的空气并去除任何积聚的水分。

QHY183 型号也可用作导星设备。光电隔离导星端口是使用 RJ11 型插孔的标准 ST-4 配置。每台相机都附带一根导星电缆。

183 的传感器尺寸较小，分辨率较高，非常适合短焦距望远镜或通过大型望远镜对较小的暗物体进行成像。尺寸较大的 163 具有更大的视野，是成像星云等较大天空区域或与长焦距望远镜配合使用以充分利用望远镜全视野的绝佳选择。

QHY183M 是一款 1 英寸、20 万像素背照式单色 CMOS 相机，峰值 QE 为 84%。像素大小为 2.4um，使用中等尺寸的望远镜即可获得高分辨率。该相机能够以 15FPS@20 万像素的速度拍摄。它具有两级 TEC，可将传感器冷却至低于环境温度 -40C 至 -45C。ADC 为 12 位/16 位，读取噪声为 1e！计算机接口为 USB 3.0，曝光时间可设置为 50us 至 3600 秒。

The human race's desire to explore the boundaries of the known world drove our ancestors to climb the tallest mountains, conquer the poles and cross vast uncharted oceans before ultimately reaching out into space in the 1960s.

Giant rockets were built to allow our space pioneers to travel beyond Earth's orbit and land on the Moon. But there is another frontier that we have yet to set foot on – Mars. The Red Planet is our next destination; it will be a long process, starting with small scientific bases hidden among craters and ending with enormous self-sustaining cities. But...

• What will the journey from Earth to Mars be like?
• What will we find when we land?
• Where will we get oxygen and food?

In this book, you will find answers to all these questions about day-to-day life in a Martian city. Mars offers us the opportunity to start anew – are you ready for lift-off?

On July 21, 1969, the first man set foot on The Moon. When Neil Armstrong was asked if this made him feel big, he answered: "No, it made me feel really, really small."

50 years later, this publication celebrates that special moment that put life on earth into a totally different perspective. It collects pictures of the world's best photographers from the 1840s until today. Next to historical photographs and imagery printed in media, the publication features many artists that each in their own way reflect on this mystical celestial body, we call 'moon'. The book shows the diversity of meanings of The Moon, it's relation to mankind and to nature.

The Moon has always both attracted and scared people around the world. It is our everyday connection to the unfathomable universe. Since time immemorial it is revered for its beauty, its stillness and mysterious appearance and yet also feared for its supernatural-seeming qualities. In mythology The Moon has always been given a central place. With its magnetic forces it changes the tides and has a direct and uncontrollable impact on mankind from above.

In 1840, barely three years after the invention of photography, J.W. Draper makes the first picture ever made of The Moon and since that day photographers have never stopped following his example. The paradoxical aspects of the moon continue to fascinate and inspire. Like a photograph The Moon depends on sunlight to be visible. It has no light of its own and no apparent strength to resist our nightly city lights either. Photographers feel this close connection to The Moon's characteristics and find the perfect object in its aesthetics.

The landing on The Moon was a culmination point of the1960's Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union, which quickly became a symbol of the Cold War. The images of the landing became the bearer of values and symbols of the United States and were widely spread through various media. In 1973 NASA abolished its moon program. The Moon had been conquered and the public seemed to have had lost interest. However, today people still find The Moon fascinating, and humanity continues to dream about setting foot on the sun's shadow.

拍摄最令人惊叹的天文照片是我们团队所热衷的事情。从设计到制造，我们对 DeltaRho 350 的目标都是打造一款改变游戏规则的广角望远镜。DeltaRho 350 采用卡塞格林光学设计，这意味着成像列车固定在望远镜的背面，不会阻挡光路，而主焦点设计会严重限制用户使用滤光轮或大型相机的能力。

DeltaRho 350 是望远镜技术和易用性方面的一项惊人突破。DeltaRho 以 f/3 和 1050 毫米焦距运行，是一款广角望远镜，必将彻底改变您的天文摄影！

此外，DeltaRho 350 提供了完美的平坦视野，因此您的天文照片从图像的角落到角落都将具有惊人的清晰度，而场曲率不会降低照片的质量。DeltaRho 350 是一款出色的望远镜，它具有单镜准直的简便性、高级挡板的杂散光控制、通过有限元分析 (FEA) 创建的结构性能以及数十年的望远镜设计经验。使用大型 16803/4040 尺寸相机传感器时，DeltaRho 350 用户可以从边到边体验精确的星星和 170 x 170 弧分的视野。这个视野几乎是我们 CDK14 的 3 倍！当设备淡入背景并简单地运行时，天文摄影体验变得更加有趣和有益！
