Introduction
QHY10 is a 10 Megapixels APS-C size one-shot-colour CCD camera with -40°C thermoelectric cooling. The smaller pixel size (6.05μm) allows you to achieve a higher sampling resolution than the QHY8's 7.8μm. Similar to QHY8 series, the QHY10 also uses a cylindrical casing which makes it the best camera for Hyperstar system.
