You all know that I like Svbony, mainly because they make affordable astro gear and t he SV605CC is no different.

It’s an astro cam with an IMX533 Sensor, the same 1″ diagonal sensor that we find on the ASI533MC Pro by ZWO but it costs $200 less! $599 vs $799. How does it perform against its rival?

From the thumbnail, you can see that it’s missing the USB hub in the back but that’s pretty much it. The results were great and if I had the opportunity to, I would have bought the 605CC over the 533MC, but unfortunately, it wasn’t yet released when I got my first astrocam.

To test this, I piggybacked my Askar 71F with the ASI533MC Pro on top of the loaner Svbony SV550 Triplet with the SV605CC. This is what it looked like:

Let’s take a look and compare images of M3 and M13 taken with both of these astro cams on the same night.

On the left, we have the ASI533MC Pro and on the right we have the SV605CC. M13 on top and M3 on the bottom. Which do you like more?
