C1+ Camera Overview
C1+ camera head is designed to be as small and compact as a cooled
camera with rich features and compatible with broad set of accessories
can be.
C1+ cameras are equipped with tiltable telescope interface and tripod
mounting threaded holes. They are also compatible with external filter
wheels designed for larger C2 cameras – camera head contains connector
to control filter wheel. If the external filter wheel is used, the tiltable
mechanism on the camera head is inactive and tiltable adapters for
external filter wheels are used instead. Therefore, C1+ cameras can utilize
vast range of telescope and lens adapters including off-axis guider
adapters.
