ZWO ASI174Mini USB2.0 Mono Guide Camera - ASI174MINI

ZWO ASI174MM Mini Monochrome Imaging Camera

The mini version of the ASI174MM has a 1.25" barrel size, making it really easy to connect to your telescope and focus, since the 174mini comes to focus at the same position as an eyepiece!  With it's high dynamic range and low read noise, the ASI174MM Mini will make a good planetary imager as well as a guider.

The Sony IMX174 monochrome sensor has a 1936 x 1216 pixel array in a 11.3 mm x 7.1 mm (1/1.2") format.  The pixel size is 5.86 um square.  Peak QE is 77% and read noise is 3.5 e.  

The camera provides 12-bit ADC and up to 18.4 FPS (frames per second).  

The ZWO ASI174MM Mini sports one USB2.0 type C port. Type C ports are well suited for mobile phones because of their worry-free connection; it doesn't matter which way you turn it, unlike a Type A or Type B cable.  For guiding, you can connect the camera to the ST4 type guide port, located above the USB2.0 port on the back of the 174Mini.
