Heat Transfer/Reduction System

Heat Transfer/Cooling System: As you may know, digital noise is an ever-present and common problem that must be overcome in the world of astrophotography and any long exposure subject. Spencer's Camera & Photo has developed and patented a heat transfer cooling system that will reduce heat from the imaging sensor while not consuming any battery power. A camera with the heat transfer system installed looks like any other normal camera but with the added benefit of heat transfer technology.

Samples and Comparison Images: Sample Image #1 below is an image taken with a Full Spectrum/Clear converted camera with no heat transfer/cooling system installed. Sample Image #2 is the same exposure, same ISO/sensitivity and the same file size settings but shot with a camera that has our patented heat transfer/cooling system installed. As you can see the digital noise is lessened by the smaller amount of imaging sensor heat present. The longer the exposure the more digital noise will affect your final image and is dramatically amplified upon post processing and final image editing. Reducing the effects of digital noise in your astrophotography images is vital for the highest quality, most clarity and sharpest images possible.

Our patented Heat Transfer/Cooling System is only available for certain SLR cameras including most Canon, Fuji, Minolta, Nikon, Olympus, Pentax and Sony models. The heat transfer system can be installed along with any conversion type perform by Spencer's Camera & Photo but is limited to certain camera models. Also, there are no adverse effects to any other functions of the camera. The option to add the heat transfer system to your order is listed within the checkout system along with the camera model and filter options.
