Atik 383L+ Color CCD Camera w/ Kodak KAF-8300 Sensor ATK0068
Redefining mid-range astro imaging, the new Atik 383L+ is an 8 Megapixel camera featuring the Kodak KAF-8300 CCD. This design by Atik makes it easier for enthusiasts to access multi-megapixel, cooled cameras more easily with its irresistible price. The 383L+ is a fantastic CCD with a huge number of good-sized pixels.
ATIK provides cameras with very high image quality but at affordable prices. The ATIK 383L+ is no exception, offering the same high quality at reasonable cost. The Platform 3 by ATIK is featured with the 383L+ and it supports the Kodak KAF-8300. The advantages of this design provide very low read-noise circuits and reliability.
The camera can be used with either the EFW-U or our new EFW2 and Off Axis Guider (coming soon). Standard 1.25 filters can be used for focal ratios of f/5 and above without vignetting. Faster focal ratios will need flat-field correction or 36mm filters.
