Description
The TRIUS PRO825 – an Exview2 version of the SX9.
This new camera uses a brand new version of the legendary ICX285 – used in thousands of H9 cameras since 2003. The new chip (ICX825) offers an excellent QE of approx. 75% in the yellow visual band and an extremely good H alpha QE. The image format and pixel size are the same as for the SX9 camera.
