Overview
The ASI 120MM Mini is a great first guide camera, with its high sensitivity, features, and low price. Like other cameras in ZWO's lineup of "Mini" models, it has a long barrel to allow easy positioning in a guidescope, like the nose of a regular eyepiece. This also allows a bit of extra adjustment for focus on your guidescope, as necessary.
Low read noise, high dynamic range, AR protective window and much more are just some of the key characteristics that provide good guiding performance and set it apart from the competition.
USB2.0 Port & ST4 Port
USB 2.0 Port: Mini camera has one USB2.0 type-C port. Type-C port is very popular in mobile phones, as it doesn’t matter which way you connect it (unlike for example type-A or type-B)
#USB-C to USB-A cable is required.
ST4 Port: The camera can be connected directly to the auto-guider port of the mount.
What's in the Box
The ZWO Mini Guide Scope is a 30mm f/4 refractor guide scope in a small, easy to use package. It even comes ready to use with guider rings and dovetail for simple mounting. ZWO made sure this system was lightweight (1.1 lb.), allowing you to use it on most any scope or mount. Add an inexpensive brand-specific t-ring to the ZWO Mini Guidescope and attach it to your DSLR camera. It can be used as a finder with optional eyepiece (reticle or otherwise) as long as you view straight-through (no diagonal).
