 ==== (8-9) Broadband Imaging (BBI) filter & camera ====
-If illuminated, the BBI camera offers a broadband high-resolution image with a square field-of-view of about ~55"x55". A broadband red filter, with a ~3nm passband centred around 656 nm is placed upstream of the camera. THEMIS BBI camera thus currently provides images or the red visible continuum.

 THEMIS BBI camera is currently a 2000 x 2000 pixels Andor Zyla camera. This camera relies on the scientific CMOS technology (active-pixel sensor). This offers a high quality image of a subset of the THEMIS field-of-view with a very fast read-out, enabling the capture of a burst of images capture (up to 40 images/second) that are ideal for post image reconstruction. <html><font color="#ff9900"> Camera acquisition settings can be changed by the user in the THEMIS control room. Acquisition is left to the needs and appreciation of the user. </font></html>\\

 If the slit-jaw slit configuration has been chosen at F2, the light not entering the spectrograph is captured by the slit-jaw camera. Slit-jaw images offers the context images of the spectrograph slit and allows a precise knowledge of the localisation of the slit.
-As almost all the remaining 15 watts of radiative power are then directed toward the camera, filters shall be place upstream of the camera to reduce the light flux. Presently a green continuum filter at XXX nm, with a 10 nm passband is used.

 The slit-jaw camera is currently a ZWO ASI 178MM camera capturing the F2 field-of-view on a 3000x2000 pixels array. It's a CMOS camera. Without polarimetry, the field of view is 2'x2', while it is reduced to 2'x1' when polarimetric analysis are carried.
