The launch of the new Atik Titan means you no longer have to choose between planetary and deep-sky imaging. You can now do both, making this the perfect newcomer's camera.

As a deep-sky camera, the cooled CCD with low read-noise allows detection of faint details over long exposures. Planetary imaging moves the goal-posts from sensitivity to resolution, requiring fast frame rates to capture moments of best seeing.

As a complement to the EFW2 filter wheel, we have developed an  Off_Axis Guider, which features just about everything needed to  successfully use this kind of guiding system.

Changing filters couldn't be any simpler than the Atik manual filter wheel makes it.

The Atik 460EX the next step in the astronomical CCD revolution. Featuring the latest generation Sony™ EXview HAD CCD II™ technology in an area over twice as large than before, this camera has an outstanding Quantum Efficiency, very low noise and excellent thermal management.

The Atik 450 is the first camera available to astronomers that use Sony’s excellent ICX655 5 MP sensor. This is one of the latest generation of Sony devices, and shows the results of Sony’s continued development to drive down thermal and read noise, while providing an increasing number of pixels and good quantum efficiencies.  The 5MP sensor is an ideal match to shorter focal length refractors and HyperStar systems, giving DSLR levels of resolution in a camera optimised for deep-sky Astrophotography.

The Atik 428EX is the first camera available to astronomers that uses Sony’s state of the artICX674 2.8MP sensor. Featuring the latest generation EXview technology, this camera has an outstanding Quantum Efficiency, very low noise and excellent thermal management. This model is an ideal match to telescopes commonly used by amateurs. It’s excellent sensitivity makes it one of the best cameras for deep-sky astrophotography, surpassing its fore runner,the acclaimed ICX285.

The Atik 4-Series cameras are a development of the 3-Series cameras, featuring a narrower body.  These are particularly suitable if the camera is to be placed in front of the telescope in HyperStar or Fastar systems, as well as on custom-designed systems that need a narrow-bodied CCD camera.  The cameras feature setpoint cooling to make taking matching dark frames a snap, and simple 12V power requirement to facilitate field operation.

The Atik 420 is the first camera in its class to offer high performance regulated cooling, low power consumption and narrow body all in one. It is particularly well matched with the 6 and 8 inch HyperStar systems, where the narrow body and low heat dissipation make a difference, or with short focal lenght refractors, providing a very fast, high definition wide field of view. And without the price tag.

Atik prides itself on providing cameras offering the very highest image quality at a reasonable cost. We see no reason to change. We have built on the success of our highly-regarded Atik 314 platform to support Kodak's KAF-8300. This immediately offers a huge number of advantages, including the very low read-noise circuits and the reliability of using this established design.

The new Atik 383L+ is an 8-megapixel camera using the Kodak KAF-8300 CCD. A huge amount has been written about this CCD to justify its place in astronomers' hearts. We can sum it up succinctly by saying that it's a fabulous CCD, with a huge number of good-sized pixels, and is currently available at an irresistible price.

Like its siblings, the Atik 314E and Atik 314L+, the Atik 320E is based on the highly regarded Atik 3 series platform. This gives the lowest read-noise of any camera currently available to amateur astronomers. The platform features a USB 2.0 interface for fast readout. The Atik 320E also boasts highly efficient cooling and low weight.

The new Atik 320E is a 2-megapixel camera offering the opportunity to take stunning wide-field images of the sky at high resolution. Like the Atik 314E, its relatively small pixels make it ideally suited to popular short focal length refractors.

The sheer number of pixels allows images to be taken at extremely high resolution. These look great on the web, or printed at A4 size and greater.
