Applications & selection
G3M662M applications
Lunar surface imaging
2.9 µm pixels and 2.1 MP (1920 × 1080) resolution support detailed lunar mosaics and close-up imaging.
Narrowband and near-infrared imaging
380–1100 nm monochrome response supports filter-based seeing control and contrast enhancement.
High-speed solar and occultation capture
Fast acquisition supports brief events and solar imaging when the telescope uses a correctly specified solar filter.
When to choose this camera
Choose the G3M662M when 107 fps acquisition, 2.9 µm sampling and the IMX662 sensor match your telescope's focal length and seeing conditions.
