QHY268C-PH Color Photographic APS-C Camera
Starting Price: $1,999.00 Sale Price: $1,699.00
Price as Configured: $1,699.00
Brand: QHYCCD / SKU: QHY-110058
The QHY268M/C is a new generation of back-illuminated CMOS cameras with true 16-bit A/D and 3.76um pixels. This Sony sensor is an ideal CMOS sensor exhibiting no amplifier glow. 16-bit A/D gives high resolution sampling of the whole full well range. Digitizing 0-65535 levels yields a smooth image with continuous gradation of grayscale levels.

Back Focal Length | QHY268M: 12.5mm* *If accompanied with the QHY filter wheel, the BFL consumed is counted as 12.5mm. The actual BFL (the intercept from the CMOS chip to the top of the camera) is 14.3mm (±0.3). Since most users will match CFW with monochrome cams, please take 12.5mm as reference. | QHY268C: 14.3mm(±0.3)*
*Since 2023, the top part of QHY268C is the same as 268M. |
