SBIG ST4000XCM with adaptive optics

When it came out this was a $4500 camera, so it certainly has quality built into it. With the sef-guiding chip, there's no need for an off-axis guider, and the AO7 adaptive optics smooths out any mount antics without having to send pulses to the mount. It's a lot easier to move a tiny mirror rather than to nudge a big telescope.

Aparrently if you have an SBIG guide scope, the AO7 can work with the input from the guide scope and you can put other cameras of your choice behind the adaptive optics (I checked with SBIG).

It comes with all cables and some spares, dessicant, power, manual & case.

More Information can be found here; http://www.company7.com/library/sbig..._st4000xcm.htm

Looking for $500.

Hi,
I'm interested in the SBIG ST4000XCM with adaptive optics.

Is this compatible with a Celestron C11 SCT and a Bresser Meade 152mm refractor?

Cheers,
Domuse

Re. camera

Hi I am also very interested.. I stay in Mandurah so not far. Does it work with windows 10? Or do I need an older system to operate it? Thanks Greg

Sbig st4000xcm

Hi Markus,
Please let me know if the camera is still available for purchase. No dramas re postage costs as I'm in Perth.



Looking to get into astrophotography and video capture - this looks to be a good place to start!


Cheers,
Domuse
