ATR2600C Color Cooled Astronomy Camera
Built around the Sony IMX571 APS-C back-illuminated sensor, ATR2600C is a one-shot color cooled astronomy camera designed for deep-sky photographers who want cleaner images, lower thermal noise, and a simpler color workflow than traditional DSLR or mirrorless setups.
Upgrade from DSLR: Your Next Leap in Astrophotography
Moving from a standard DSLR or mirrorless camera to a dedicated cooled CMOS camera is a major step forward for deep-sky imaging. Uncooled sensors can suffer from thermal noise during long exposures, especially on warm nights, while internal filters may limit important emission-line response. ATR2600C is built to solve these common DSLR pain points.
Two-Stage TEC Cooling System
The dual-stage thermoelectric cooling system lowers the sensor temperature up to 42°C below ambient, helping maintain stable, low-noise performance for long-exposure imaging.
Zero Amp-Glow Architecture
Carefully designed circuitry helps achieve amp-glow-free imaging, reducing unwanted glow artifacts and producing cleaner deep-sky backgrounds.
Intelligent Anti-Dew Technology
A 4-level adjustable protection-window heater helps prevent condensation, supporting more reliable imaging sessions through changing night conditions.
The Perfect Balance of Pro-Quality and Effortless Color Workflow
ATR2600C delivers one-shot color simplicity while retaining deep-sky performance for serious imaging. It is designed for users who want cleaner, richer, more detailed images than a DSLR can usually provide, without the extra complexity of a monochrome camera, filter wheel, and full LRGB or narrowband workflow.
Flagship Sony IMX571 APS-C Sensor
The back-illuminated APS-C sensor offers 6224 × 4168 resolution, 3.76μm pixels, and a 28.3mm diagonal, giving users a wide field of view and detailed deep-sky capture.
Native 16-bit ADC & 14-Stop Dynamic Range
Native 16-bit conversion and 14 stops of dynamic range help preserve subtle tonal gradients, smoother color transitions, and bright-star detail.
High Full-Well Capacity & Ultra-Low Read Noise
Selectable HCG and LCG modes support different imaging conditions, with read noise as low as 0.883e- and full-well capacity up to 100 ke- in high full-well mode.
Watch Deep-Sky Wonders Unfold in Real Time
For long-exposure deep-sky imaging and EAA live-stacking workflows, ATR2600C is designed to deliver stable data transmission, low-noise performance, and reliable real-time imaging support.
512MB DDR3 Ultra-Fast Memory Buffer
The built-in 512MB memory buffer helps reduce frame drops, minimize USB bus traffic bottlenecks, and support stable image delivery during demanding capture sessions.
Optimized HCG / LCG Benchmarks
HCG and LCG modes help users balance low read noise, high full-well capacity, and dynamic range for different imaging targets and exposure strategies.
Stable Field Operation
With stable external power and proper cooling settings, ATR2600C supports reliable long-session imaging for deep-sky targets and live-stacking use.
Spectral Response
The spectral response chart provides additional sensor performance reference for deep-sky imaging planning and filter selection.
Mechanical Diagram
Mechanical drawings and port layout help confirm physical dimensions, back focus planning, and connection requirements before purchase.
Connection with Accessories
ATR2600C can be used as part of a complete deep-sky imaging workflow with compatible accessories such as a telescope, mount, guide camera, computer or controller, and stable external power supply.
