CCD Autoguiders, Imagers and accessories

In most high technology markets there are "pioneers", companies who have the technology and dedication to influence the direction of an entire industry. In the past 10 years SBIG has been that pioneer in the electronic imaging industry. We have a reputation for outstanding quality products. We were the first company to introduce CCD autoguiding with the Model ST-4, Track and Accumulate (TRACCUM) with the Model ST-6, and dual CCD self-guiding with the Models ST-7 and ST-8. SBIG pioneered tricolor imaging with both hardware and software and are pushing the technology forward again with the introduction of Adaptive Optics and a stand-alone video camera and autoguider.

Home-Dome & Pro-Dome Observatories


HOME-DOME observatories come in diameters of 6 feet and 10 feet. The 6 foot observatory comes in a short model (HD-6S), and a tall version (HD-6T). The HD6T is a free-standing dome with a 45" high wall (including door) that you will bolt to a deck or concrete pad. The HD6S or the HD10 is the dome to choose if you build your own walls; these models come with a base ring that you bolt to the top of your wall. PRO-DOME diameters are 10 feet and 15 feet. The base ring of these models includes a door; matching fiberglass wall rings are available to make a wall of whatever height you need. ROBO-DOME is our smallest dome, big enough for a small automated telescope but not a person. It is oval shaped, with a footprint that is approximately 40" by 50". The dome diameter of rotation is 40".
