FOR SALE is my APOGEE ALTA MONO High Performance CCD Camera
Bought this 3 years ago from an IIS member but have not used it at all, too many other cameras, too many cloudy nights and not enough time to do MONO.
As it is an iconic mono camera it deserves a new home.
The Alta U8300 medium format 8 megapixel Kodak Blue Plus sensor, ideal for applications requiring a large field of view with a smaller pixel.
