The ZWO Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector (ADC) is an ingenious device that compensates for the effects of atmospheric dispersion. The ZWO ADC uses a pair of prisms that can be precisely adjusted with manual levers to apply the opposite dispersion induced by the atmosphere.
ZWO Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector is used to reduce the effect of atmospheric dispersion on lunar and planetary images. The prisms are the center of the ADC. Material: H-K9L (Schott BK7) Surface Accuracy: λ/10@632.8nm. Deviation Angle: 2°. Manufactured with a UV-friendly AR-coating.
The ZWO ADC, or Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector, reduces prismatic smearing during planetary imaging, resulting in images with finer details. It also improves the image when doing visual planetary observations, allowing the observer to see more surface detail.
ZWO 1.25-inch Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector. Credit: Martin Lewis. The unit consists of three sections- a 1.25-inch nosepiece that fits in your focuser or Barlow tail end, the main prism body, and a 1.25-inch female end into which you insert your eyepiece or imaging camera.
In this product review, Martin Lewis of SkyInspector.co.uk takes a look at the ZWO Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector (ADC). This compact device was designed to enable improved imaging of planets, especially planets at low altitude, by reducing the color smearing induced by atmospheric dispersion.The ZWO atmospheric dispersion corrector is the ...
Latest version with bubble level to aid zero position alignment. The ZWO Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector (ADC) is the first of it's kind, designed and manufactured by astronomers for astronomers.
Let the ZWO Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector help you improve your planetary and lunar imaging. The ZWO ADC is a great tool for your imaging toolbox. It allows you to negate the effects of distortion and aberrations on bright objects.
What is an 'Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector' or ADC? The light from stars and planets is refracted by the layer of air when it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. This refraction varies greatly depending on the wavelength of light; an effect which is known as ' dispersion'.
The ZWO ADC includes two high quality prisms of 1/10 Lamda surface quality. By a certain positioning of these prisms you can counteract the effects of atmospheric dispersion, i.e. reduce or possibly even completely eliminate the false colour introduced by the earths atmosphere.
The ZWO ADC (Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector) is an essential tool for astrophotographers looking to capture high-quality images of celestial objects. Designed to correct the atmospheric dispersion caused by the Earth's atmosphere, the ZWO ADC is a valuable addition to any astrophotography setup.
