Purchase Phase: Act I

Project News, Purchase Reports

Time for the first batch of buys. We started with the main important components of the project: Lens, Astronomical Camera and Micro Computer.

The Lens
To obtain an fisheye effect and to cover all the skydome our choiche goes to Arecont Vision 1/2” 1.55mm f2 CS allsky lens. It costed 96,45 £ (116,81 €) and we will receive it in some days (hoping for no surprises from customs 🙂 damn customs! + 26,48 €).

The Astronomical Camera
Finally we decided to goes right to ZWO ASI 224MC Camera. A great camera which will allow us to obtain great sky images. It costed 270,90 € and yes, it’s already in our hands.

Micro Computer
As already said our choice fell on a compact, high-performance and economical microcomputer: the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B + 4GB RAM. We bought one with a time limited offer for 83,80 € in total and it comes with its case protection, power supply, sandisk 64Gb Memory card and heat dissipators.

Tempo di acquisti: abbiamo ovviamente iniziato con le componenti fondamentali del progetto: Lente, Camera di Acquisizione Astronomica e Micro Computer.

La Lente
Per ottenere l’effetto grandangolare e riuscire a coprire quanto più cielo possibile abbiamo deciso di puntare sulla lente Arecont Vision 1/2” 1.55mm f2 CS. E’ costata 96,45 £ (116,81 €) e arriverà a giorni (sperando di non ricevere sorprese dalla dogana visto che l’abbiamo acquistata in UK 🙂 dannate dogane! +26,48 €).

La Camera Astronomica
La nostra scelta è stata la ZWO ASI 224MC. Una grande camera che ci permetterà di ottenere bellissime immagini del cielo. Il suo costo è stato di 270,90 € e si… è già nelle nostre mani.

Micro Computer
Come già anticipato abbiamo deciso di puntare su un microcomputer compatto e dalle buone prestazioni: il Raspberry Pi 4 Model B + 4GB RAM. Ne abbiamo acquistato uno sfruttando una promozione a tempo limitata per 83,80 € comprensiva di custodia, alimentatore da parete, Memory Card Sandisk da 64Gb e dissipatori.

E per ultimo ecco tutte le ricevute degli acquisti di oggi. Chi fosse interessato a conoscere l’intera situazione economica del progetto può dare un occhiata qui:
