Celestron NexImage 10 Color Solar System Imager

What do you get when you combine the innovation of Celestron & The Imaging Source, plus the latest CMOS technology from ON Semiconductor? The Celestron NexImage 10 Solar System Color Imager, that's what! The NexStar 10 boasts features like USB 3.0 SuperSpeed (backwards compatible with USB 2.0), a high resolution ON Semiconductor CMOS color sensor with super small 1.67 micron pixels in a 3856 x 2754 pixel array, Celestron iCap image capture software, RegiStax stacking software, and more.

The Celestron NexImage 10 is PACKED with pixels. More than ten million pixels. That may not seems like a lot compared to a consumer point-and-shoot camera, but in the planetary imaging world, it’s all about how much detail per pixel is seen. With super-small 1.67µm pixels, smaller telescopes with shorter focal lengths are still going to yield tremendous planetary detail. It’s one of the best valued high-res USB 3 planetary imaging cameras out there.

Simply point your telescope at the Moon or a planet and record a quick video. The software analyzes each frame of video, throws away the fuzzy ones, and perfectly aligns the remaining images. The result is a bright, clear image with the maximum amount of color and detail. NexImage 10 is a great way to get started with astroimaging, especially if you live in a light-polluted area. If you can see the planet in the sky, you can image it with NexImage 10!
