Poseidon-C Pro

Designed for vivid deep-sky capture, the Player One Poseidon-C Pro is a high-end cooled color camera built for astro imaging excellence.

Key Features

• Sony IMX571 APS-C CMOS Sensor:
  26 megapixels (6252 x 4176), 3.76 µm pixel size, ~28.3 mm diagonal sensor.

• Deep Cooling System:
  Dual-stage TEC cooling achieves delta-T of up to 40 °C below ambient, minimizing thermal noise.

• Rear 4-Point Sensor Tilt Plate:
  Precise tilt adjustment at four corners reduces field curvature. Includes high-density sponge shading pad to prevent side-light leakage.

• 512 MB DDR3 Buffer:
  Stabilizes data transmission, prevents frame drops, and lowers readout noise-even on USB 2.0 ports.

• STARVIS Back-Illuminated CMOS:
  High quantum efficiency (~80%), excellent low-light sensitivity.

• Native 16-Bit ADC:
  Enables 65,536 discrete output levels for smoother tonal transitions and richer color detail.

• High Frame Rate Performance:
  Up to ~15 fps in RAW8 and ~7 fps in RAW16 at full resolution (6252x4176) over USB 3.0.

• Non-Amp-Glow Design:
  Minimal glow artifacts on long exposures, producing cleaner images and reducing the need for dark frames.

• Robust Mechanical Design:
  Octagonal body made from frosted black and red anodized surfaces, with round chamfered edges for both durability and style.
