Overview
The ToupTek ATR585M is a cooled mono astronomy camera with Sony’s IMX585, a 1/1.2″ STARVIS 2 sensor of 8.3 megapixels with 2.9 µm pixels. Peak quantum efficiency is above 91%, with strong near-infrared response.
Mono and near-infrared together make it a good planetary and lunar camera through an IR-pass filter, where steadier seeing at longer wavelengths gives sharper frames. Cooling also makes it useful for narrowband on small deep-sky targets: at 400 mm it samples at about 1.5″ per pixel. Read noise falls to 0.5 e⁻ at high gain.
Cooling, dew and power
Two-stage cooling takes the sensor up to 45 °C below the air temperature. It holds the set point to within 0.1 °C, so dark frames can be reused from night to night. A heater on the front window has four power settings and can be switched off in software. Cooling needs 12 V; the 12 V 3 A power supply is in the box.
Back focus and connections
Back focus is 17.5 mm from the M42 thread. Adapter rings and extension tubes are included to build out to the spacing your flattener or reducer needs, usually 55 mm. A 512 MB buffer holds each frame while it transfers, so a slow USB link doesn’t drop frames.
