## Description

The ZWO ASI662MC is a versatile and highly sensitive color astronomy camera for capturing images of solar system objects through a telescope. The camera incorporates an advanced 2.1 megapixel CMOS sensor with a dimensions of 5.6mm x 3.2mm and high quantum efficiency to help you extract maximum detail in your astrophotos while keeping noise and exposure time as low as possible. This camera is ideal for capturing detailed images of the moon and planets and can also be used for electronically-assisted astronomy to acquire color images of many deep-sky objects. The USB3.0 port offers a fast capture rate of 102.6 frames-per-second at the full resolution of 1936x1096. NOTE: This camera is best used with a refractor or reflector telescope mounted on a solid equatorial mount that can accurately track the motion of the sky. It is not intended for taking images through the eyepiece of a telescope. You may require additional accessories such as an autoguider or focal reducer to get the best results. All software and drivers for this camera are available from the manufacturer’s website.
