Overview
The QHY5III485C is a high-performance 4K color camera equipped with Sony's IMX485, back-illuminated CMOS sensor, offering 8.4 megapixels at a resolution of 3864 x 2180 pixels. With its 16:9 aspect ratio, this camera is ideal for video output, making it perfect for astronomical video recording and live streaming. It also features a 128MB DDR built-in image buffer to manage high-resolution data and enhance performance. Additionally, the camera includes a 2.5mm fisheye lens, transforming it into an all-sky camera with a 180-degree field of view.
4K resolution
The QHY5III485C uses Sony's new IMX485, back-illuminated, 8.4 megapixel color CMOS sensor with an array of 3864 x 2180 pixels at 2.9um. With USB 3.0 interface, the full frame rate of 44 FPS at 8-bits or 18.5 FPS at 16-bits. Smaller regions of interest will yield even faster frame rates.
16:9 resolution - More convenient video output
The resolution of QHY5III485C is 16:9, which is equivalent to the mainstream video output ratio. With the native high resolution, 485C can play a special role in recording astronomical video and astronomical science live broadcast.
DDR built-in image buffer
QHY5III485C is specially equipped with 128MB DDR built-in image buffer. In non-video output mode, DDR built-in buffer can effectively relieve the transmission pressure brought by high-resolution large data volume and reduce information loss.
Multiple Functions
The QHY5III485C standard package includes a 2.5mm Fisheye lens that converts the planetary camera into a high-resolution, 8.4 Megapixel All Sky camera with 180-degree field of view.

Let customers speak for us
from 103 reviewsVery good product and good service delivering it promptly.
Very happy with binoculars, great service, and excellent advice
A well made, versatile and useful accessory for 1.25 inch eyepieces. When using small telescopes without a prism or diagonal, there is sometimes not enough focus travel, this extension tube adds to the focus.
This adaptor works well with an iPhone 16 max pro. It’s easy to fit the phone and get it into an eye piece.
It’s a good way to determine what is and isn’t possible with an iPhone camera.
Steady hands with a 12” Dob can capture the Orion cluster. Open star clusters are also great targets.
Very happy with our new binoculars and great service from Astronz
A great product that is easily charged via usb-c.
I purchased the 8” Astronz Dobsonian and it’s been amazing! First use I was in awe of Jupiter and moons, Saturn, Orion Nebula, Matariki, things I’d never seen apart from pictures. Andrew was super helpful. It’s really easy to setup and use, really good quality, so much to discover!
I have set it up on my sky tracker and tripod, ready to try but due to busy work and no clear sky in the last couple of week I had no opportunity tu use it. Can you ask for my feedback a bit later please. I gave 5 stars for excellent service and support by Astronz
I recently made a small purchase but gained a wealth of information and advice on my next scope purchase.
I can’t imagine shopping anywhere else for scope equipment. I was also delighted to acquire a PC connection cable for my now discontinued Meade Goto scope.
Very quick delivery of a great product, thank you
This eyepiece is a perfect addition for my older 8" Dobsonian telescope. Crystal clear view of 47 Tucanae and a nice view of M42 & even NGC2070. Ofcourse the planets are excellent. My older Dob' came with only 25mm & 9mm plossl so the 15mm is a welcome addition for casual observing.
Very nice. A lovely complement to my old pair 7x50 Tento (made in USSR). Recommend.
