Capture high-resolution planetary, lunar, and solar images with almost any telescope with the NexImage 5 Solar System Imager. Combined with the included software package, NexImage 5 brings out tremendous detail and produces images rivaling those taken with astronomical cameras costing hundreds of pounds more. Simply point your telescope at the Moon or a planet and record a quick video. The included software analyses each frame of video and automatically filters out the ones most affected by poor atmospheric seeing. Only the clearest frames remain. The stacking software then precisely aligns and stacks these frames into a single image with amazing sharpness and detail.

Whether you’re exploring craters on the Moon or the cloud bands of Jupiter, Solar System imaging with NexImage 5 is a rewarding hobby that will bring you years of enjoyment. NexImage 5 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 5! This kit includes the camera, which fits any telescope that accepts 1.25” eyepieces, along with a USB 2.0 cable for connecting to your computer, and software for both PC and Mac.

  • 5 Mega pixel color sensor with ON Semiconductor’s breakthrough low-noise CMOS imaging technology to dramatically reduce image noise levels
  • Software automatically filters out video frames most affected by poor atmospheric conditions, leaving only the sharpest, clearest frames to be stacked and aligned into one high-quality image
  • View and capture live video on your computer
  • Manually adjust gain, contrast, exposure time, frame rate and color saturation using your PC
  • Machined aluminum 1.25" adapter barrel with C-threads for direct threaded connection to almost any telescope
