Push the frontiers of mono imaging with the Player One Poseidon-M Pro — a high-end cooled camera made for advanced narrowband and deep-sky capture.

Key Features

  • Sony IMX571 APS-C CMOS Sensor:
    26 megapixels (6252 x 4176), 3.76 µm pixel size, ~28.3 mm diagonal mono 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 (~91%), excellent low-light sensitivity, ideal for narrowband filters.

  • Native 16-Bit ADC:
    Enables 65,536 discrete output levels for smoother tonal transitions and precise grayscale data.

  • 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.
