An occultation of the late-type star SAO 95190 was recorded at the Calar Alto Observatory's 3.5m telescope using for the first time the Omega-Cass camera. This uses a 1024 x 1024 pixel HgCdTe array (HAWAII), which can be read-out at fast speed in a subarray. ... A movie is available (300Kb), showing a sequence of about 2.4 seconds in a 32 x 32 pixels subarray, corresponding to 9.6 x 9.6 arcseconds on the sky. ...
