Capture high-resolution planetary, lunar and solar images with almost any telescope with the NexImage 5 Solar System Imager. Combined with the included software package, NexImage 5 brings out tremendous detail and produces images rivaling those taken with astronomical cameras costing hundreds more.
Simply point your telescope at the Moon or a planet and record a quick video. The included software analyzes each frame of video, throws away the fuzzy ones, and perfectly aligns the remaining images. The result is a bright, clear image with the maximum amount of color and detail. NexImage 5 is a great way to get started with astroimaging, especially if you live in a light-polluted area. If you can see the planet the sky, you can image it with NexImage 5!

FAQ
My NexImage camera is properly connected to my Windows 10 computer, but the camera is not recognized by the iCap software. How can I get iCap to recognize the camera so I can use the software to capture images?
For PCs running Windows 10 versions 1803 or newer, there is a camera privacy setting that grants permission to apps to access the camera. This needs to be enabled in Windows. To do this, go to Settings > Privacy > Camera, and turn on “Allow apps to access your camera.”
Are the NexImage cameras Mac OS compatible?
Yes, using the open source software provided under the Support & Downloads tab on this webpage. oaCapture is used for camera control, and Lynkeos is used for image processing. Please consult the “Open Source Software Installation – Mac OS” document also found under the Support & Downloads tab.
