Recent Images FLI ProLine 11002

Here you find displayed my most recent work in chronological order with the most recent Image on the left. All images in this album were taken using a ProLine 11002 from Finger Lakes Instrumentation (FLI). This Camera has the KAI11002 35mm frame size chip from Kodak. The ProLine has selectable download speeds of: the standard 1MPPS providing a 12sec full frame download or 12MPPS providing a lightning fast 1 sec full frame 11K pixel download speed! The triple stage cooling can lower the chip temperature some 60 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 so there is no condensation or frosting problems. The camera also has an inbuilt mechanical shutter. The 50mm Astronomik TypeIIc filter set is fitted within the integrated Colour Filter wheel 2-7 (CFW-2-7) also from FLI. All in all a great medium/large format chip camera system. Camera control and image acquisition is via Astroart4 and I use STAR Atlas:Pro to control my Takahashi NJP mount. Flat field frames are acomplished using an AstroHandy LightRing.
