The ZWO ASI533MM Pro is a great 1" Square format mono camera to get you headed down your imaging path.

The ZWO ASI533MM Pro is a high-performance mono camera at an affordable price.  As you would expect this latest generation camera not only retains key features of the ASI183 series such as an attractive QE figure, high frame rate and along with other excellent characteristics of the ASI183 cameras, but also now includes new and improved features such as zero amp glow, extreme low readout noise (as low as 1.0e), 3.76 microns pixel size and an improved 2 stage TEC cooler giving enhanced cooling capabilities.

This camera is great for deep-space imaging. You can start to let your artistic side out with the use of filters and some time processing the data.

The ASI533MM PRO is equipped with a USB 3.0 interface, and even in 14bit mode, can reach 20 frames per second. The 256MB DDR3 memory ensures stable downloading of frames with increased USB speeds.

Traditional CMOS sensors produce a weak infrared light source during operation quite often seen in the corner of uncalibrated images as the telltale signs of ‘amp glow’. As the ASI533MM PRO uses zero amp glow circuitry, you won’t have to worry about amp glow even when using high gain, long exposure imaging.

The ZWO ASI533MM Pro has fantastic connectivity options.

USB 3.0 Port

USB 2.0 HUB: Can connect with various accessories,  including a filter wheel, guide camera or electronic focuser, allowing you to manage your cables better.  The hub is powered by an external power supply if you choose to connect one.

The Cooling System.

ASI533MM Pro has 2 stage TEC cooling system to enable very deep cooling with a thermal delta of -35° C. The cooler requires an external power supply, which is not included with the camera. This is the one you will need.

We recommend using a 12V/3-5A or more DC adapter for cooler power supply (2.1×5.5, center positive).

Using a battery with 11-15V is also suitable for the cooler power supply.

ZWO has all their information available for download on their website in a perfectly laid out section. Check it out here for software and drivers and here for manuals and guides.

One of the coolest gadgets, and a necessity according to a majority of ZWO users, is the ASIair Plus.  It is an all-in-one wireless camera solution.  The ASIair Plus gives you control of focus, image taking, plate solving, and computerized mount control with the included SkySafari bridge all controlled by your smart device or tablet.  It really is pretty awesome.
