Abstract: The 17m MACE telescope will employ high-resolution MACE imaging camera consisting of 832 PMTs and low resolutioon BEST camera consisting of 108 PMTs for ?-ray astronomical experiments. To enhance the duty cycle of the telescope it is proposed to have a liquid optical filter assembly in front of the MACE imaging camera. Associated electronics and mechanical components needed for successful data capturing and processing make the design of the camera an extremely challenging job. This paper presents the basic framework for the camera design currently under progress.
