Description

The Levenhuk T300 PLUS Digital Camera is an indispensable tool for astrophotography. This camera allows you to watch the night sky using a computer, take photos of deep-sky objects and record videos of interesting astronomical events. The camera has a 3-megapixel sensor that is great for shooting the Moon and the planets of the Solar system.

This camera was designed for use with a telescope of any type and brand, as a 1.25" adapter is included in the package. After the camera is connected to a computer, it transmits clear and colorful pictures on a screen instantly in real time. The camera does not need to be charged, as it is powered directly from the computer via USB cable.

To make the observation of objects of different brightness easier, the Levenhuk T300 PLUS Digital Camera has a shutter speed control. You will only need to choose the shooting time to get the best quality images. The camera has three preset modes with a frame rate of 8 to 43 frames per second.

Questions and Answers

Denis (2019.01.31)

Ok, let's put it in another way. With an ordinar eyepiece I can determine the real FOV of the telescope using the parameters of the eyepiece - focal length and its FOV. But using this camera (together with its focuser), it is harder for me to determine the real FOV I am able to see without knowing in advance the focal length and FOV of the focuser of the camera. Briefly, I want to know what FOV I am able to see through my telescope using this device.Thanks again.

Customer service:

Denis, the focal length of the camera is about 10mm.
Is there any additional information you might need?

Denis (2019.01.31)

I would like to know the optical parameters of the focuser attached to the camera. Parameters like field of view and focal length. Thank you!

Customer service:

Denis, thank you for your inquiry. There is no extra adapter or focuser that you need to attach to the camera. The camera fits any telescope. The only requirement is 1.25" diameter focuser.

Denis (2019.01.25)

I would like to know what is the focal length and filed of view of the eyepiece which is connected to the camera.

Customer service:

Dear Denis, thank you for interest in Levenhuk products. The camera is attached directly to focuser instead of the eyepiece. Is there any additional information you might need?

Rob Abz (2018.11.23)

Is the A/D 8, 10, or 12 bit per color for the T Plus series cameras?

Is there any additional information you might need?
