Here you find displayed my most recent work with the FLI ProLine 16803 CCD camera. All images in this album were taken using a ProLine 16803 from Finger Lakes Instrumentation (FLI). This Camera has the KAF16803 37mm X 37mm square frame size chip from Kodak. The ProLine has selectable download speeds of: the standard 1MPPS providing a 20sec full frame download or 8MPPS providing a lightning fast 4 sec full frame (16mega pixel) download speed! The triple stage cooling can lower the chip temperature some 58 degC below ambient and can hold it there extemely accurately. This super cooling is currently unmatched in the commercial amateur CCD market and is invaluable during summer when night time air temperatures can be quite warm thus negating the need for water buckets and hoses. The chip is encased in an inert dry gas filled chamber and features an integrated dew prevention system, so there is no condensation or frosting problems. The CCD window is a super low reflection glass with a transmission of better than 99.7% across the visible spectrum and almost 100% in the green. The camera also has an inbuilt mechanical shutter. The 50mm square Astronomik TypeIIc and HaSIIOIII filter sets are fitted within the Colour Filter wheel 5-7 (CFW-5-7) also from FLI. All in all a great large format chip camera system. Camera control and image acquisition is via Astroart5 and I use STAR Atlas:Pro to control my Takahashi NJP mount. Flat field frames are acomplished using an Aurora Flat Field Panel by Astronomik.
