No batteries are required as the energy efficient AstroScope draws minimal power from the camera's rechargeable battery vis the lens cable connection. A variety of Gen II and Gen III Central Intensifier Units allow you to tailor a system in terms of resolution, sensitivity, spectral response, gain, output brightness and budget. This light amplifier transforms dark, moonlit or starlit nights into bright, high-resolution scenes easily recorded by the camera's daylight sensor. A new 3-position Variable Gain unit has been developed to add to the range of the 9323B. Requires approved government export license to export outside the US and Canada.
