The Oculus PRO Colour Daytime All-Sky Camera is designed to provide high Quality sky images for weather and atmosphere observations.  The core of this camera is based on the super-sensitive 1.4 megapixel ‘Ultrastar PRO Colour’, it comes with the 1.55mm f2 180 degree ‘Fish-Eye’ lens, with IR and ND filters, giving you horizon to horizon clear daytime coverage.  The new PRO version has built in Dew Detection which only turns the internal dew heater on when necessary so the camera itself is not heated when the humidity is low, increasing your signal to noise.
