The G3 is an excellent entry-level astronomical CCD camera. It's light, more sensitive than a DSLR, reasonably affordable and delivers crisp, clean and detailed results.
The G3 is not just a great entry-level CCD camera: it can be used as an autoguider.
...each greyscale image can contain up to 65,536 grey tones - perfect for all those delicate, wispy bits of faint nebulosity.
- Sky at Night Magazine December 2012
The Orion Camera Studio software supplied with the G3 cameras offers basic camera control and image-processing functions that are easy to use.
I found both StarShoot G3 Cameras to be exciting additions to the beginner CCD camera market. Their decent-sized chip, small physical size, and regulated cooling rolled into a package ... are clearly milestones in the continually evolving amateur imaging field.
Today's beginning CCD astrophotographers have a far superior and less expensive first step available to them in the Orion StarShoot G3 cameras.
