Astronomy Cameras Awards

Right since their launch in January 2007, there has been a great interest in testing The Imaging Source astronomy cameras, particularly in comparing them with cameras from other manufacturers.

Not only has the amateur astronomy community purchased cameras in order to publish reports in blogs and forums, but also the press at large has written many technical summaries and test reports in magazines and journals (see the Press Center).

In addition to these articles, some magazines were even so impressed with the cameras, that they presented them with an award. Below is a summary of the most respected awards:
