ZWO ASI183MC 20.18 MP CMOS Color Astronomy Camera with USB 3.0# ASI183MC

Q: Can I use this camera with Celestron 8se?

Yes, the ZWO-ASI183 is well suited for the Celestron 8se. I actually use it with my Celestron SCT C8 and also with a Sky-Watcher ED80.

Q: Is this camera suitable for Newtonian, 6-in F4 astrograph?

Yes, I have this newt and camera it's awesome

Q: Ok so it says this cam is not intended to take pics thru the eyepeice of a telescope. so what do you do with it then?

You can use the included 1.25" nosepiece to attach this camera into a 1.25" eyepiece holder, and take pictures with your telescope. But you then have no place - nor need - to add an eyepiece like you would use for visual astronomy.

Fantastic camera.

I originally purchased 2 other cameras, they were ok, but this one is absolutely wonderful. The quality of videos and still shots are 100% clearer & vivid. I was able to capture multiple shots of both Mars and Jupiter with no problems :) I'm still a new-bee to astrophotography, but with this camera, it changes everything!!

Awesome camera.

Love this camera. Far better quality than a couple of the other planetary type cameras I own. I do kind of wish I'd purchased the cooled version of this camera, but I have managed some nice deep space images with this camera. So far its always done a fantastic job at everything I've photographed anything that didn't turn out good was operator error.
