Product: ZWO ASI 224MC Color Astronomy Camera
Brand: ZWO
Brand Name: ZWO Model Number:ASI224MC Camera technical details Sensor: 1/3? CMOS IMX224/IMX225 Resolution: 1.2Mega Pixels 1304X976 Pixel Size: 3.75µm Sensor Size: 4.8mm*3.6mm Diagonal: 6.09mm Exposure Range: 32µs-1000s ROI: Supported Binning: 2×2 binning supported Focus Distance to Sensor: 12.5mm Shutter Type: Rolling Shutter Protect window: AR coated window Operating System Compatibility: Mac, Windows, Linux Interface: USB3.0/USB2.0 Bit rate: 12bit output(12bit ADC) Adaptor: 2? / 1.25? / M42X0.75 Dimensions: 62 mm Diameter Weight:100g Working Temperature: -5 Degree C?45 Degree C Storage Temperature: -20 Degree C?60 Degree C Working Relative Humidity: 20 Percent ?80 Percent Storage Relative Humidity: 20 Percent ?95 Percent Supported resolution 10bit ADC / 12bit ADC 1304×976 150fps / 64fps 1280×960 152.4fps / 65fps 800×600 241.2fps / 102.9fps 640×480 299.4fps / 127.6fps 320×240 577.9fps / 256.4fps More resolutions can be user defined PCB Version1.3 (include Anti-amp glow function) Most sensor will have amp-glow problem only if you do long-time exposure capture, such as longer than 1s. We apply ?amp glow reduction technology? to our ASI224MC and ASI224MC-C camera, it is a hardware modification to reduce the amp-glow of the sensor, not every sensor can benefit from this modification, but it is obvious for ASI224MC, so this upgrade is for ASI224MC  and ASI224MC-C only . We made this change since April 2016, which means the current unit (ASI224MC and ASI224MC-C) we produce all equiped with the newest PCB version ?V1.3.  
Astrophotography Performance:ASI224MC has a 1/3? and 1.2M pixels sensor IMX224 with SONY Exmor and NIR Technology. Extremely low read noise (1.5 e) and high sensitivity especially in IR range.
Read Noise of ASI224 less than 1e which can compare with sCMOS or EMCCD sensors. Very suitable for astronomy planetary and small DSO imaging.
High QE:Relative QE Curve, we estimate the Peak Value should between 75 percent -80 percent .
USB 3.0 Port and ST4 Port:USB 3.0 Port: can provide 5Gb bandwidth to let ASI224 run at 64fps (12bit, normal mode) or 150 fps (10bit, high speed mode) at full resolution(1.2Mega). ST4 Port: can be used connect with auto guide port of mount, for guiding.
