We have carried out imaging observations in the near-infrared (J, H and K’ band) with a large format array camera attached to the prime focus of the 105 cm Schmidt telescope at Kiso Observatory. The image resolution, limiting magnitudes and effect of thermal radiation are presented, based on observations of nearby galaxies. Considering the results, we are constructing a new larger near-infrared camera optimized for use with the Kiso Schmidt.
