Deep Sky Imager II™ The user-friendly astrophotography revolution continues. Introducing
the new DSI II. It combines ease-of-use with a larger chip, greater sensitivity, higher
resolution, and dramatically lower thermal noise. Meade engineers have invented a remarkable new
way to reduce noise without a cooler. This means you can take exposures for hours at a time. And
the new thermal monitoring sensors automatically match your dark frames to ambient temperature so
it’s nearly impossible to take an uncalibrated picture. The software includes a new zoom feature
for easier focusing and the squared pixels of the new larger chip make processing simpler and
images more beautiful than ever. The DSI II is the world’s first un-cooled camera with low
thermal noise. And that’s as cool as it gets.
