Product description

The C5A-150M combines Sony’s 150 MP IMX411 sensor with a built-in mechanical shutter in a compact, cooled package. It delivers true 16-bit linear data, ultra-low noise, and full-well capacity (>50 ke–), making it ideal for both high-end astrophotography and precision research. Moravian’s proven asymmetrical housing and a built-in mechanical shutter—ideal for fully automated setups requiring dark/bias frames without manual covers. Also available with the symmetrical housing (no mechanical shutter).
