High QE

Sony’s back-illuminated Exmor R technology, gives it excellent Deep Sky performance. ASI183 QE peak reaches a remarkable 84%. In the Ha channel, QE is still over 60%.

Having high QE means more of the light that enters your telescope and reaches the sensor is actually used. With 84% peak Q.E. and no less than ~50% within the visible spectrum, the ASI183 will utilise a high percentage of the light that reaches it, improving your signal quality.

Dark Current

The dark current of the ASI183 is extremely low, based on our test results.
