Rather than using a complex iris shutter, which are prone to failure, the Aluma uses a twin vane shutter and direct drive motor for high repeatability, reliability, and extremely long life.  The shutter is designed to be “even illumination” for the best accuracy in photometric measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg height=\"202\" width=\"404\" alt=\"iris1\" src=\"https:\/\/diffractionlimited.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/iris1.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1230 size-full aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\u003eThe left image shows a flat field image taken with a camera using an iris type shutter.

SmartCooling also prevents any possibility of overheating by backing off power if the heat sink gets too hot – so you don’t need to worry if your camera is baking in a hot observatory during the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdvanced Software Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll SBIG cameras come with our MaxIm LT software – a $249 value!  MaxIm LT is a special version of our venerable MaxIm DL software that provides complete control of your camera, filter wheel, and autoguider, plus advanced image processing capabilities.  If you wish you can upgrade to MaxIm DL Pro to get complete observatory integration and even more processing and analysis capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIncluded Accessories\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Aluma camera package includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaxIm LT software – please use\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ethis form\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eto request your license\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeluxe carrying case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal power supply (110V \/ 220V, 50-60 Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2″ Nosepiece adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB flash drive containing software, drivers, and documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 foot (4.5 m) USB cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTracking interface cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional Micron-Precision Filter Wheel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe optional FW8S-Aluma 8-position filter wheel includes a positive centering mechanism that precisely centers each filter in the exact same position every time.
