ZWO support site: https://support.astronomy-imaging-camera.com/ The ASI662MC is one of the latest color planetary cameras released by ZWO in 2022. Packed with Sony sensor IMX662, this camera has some very great highlights, including high sensitivity, super low readout noise and high fps.
The following figure shows the QE curve of ASI662. According to our measurement, the QE peak of ASI662 is 91%. As you can see from the camera performance graph, the readout noise of ASI662 is very low. The built-in HCG mode can even more reduce readout noise at high gain and keep the same wide dynamic range for this camera as it does at low gain.
ASI662 Manual 5. No amp glow ASI662 exhibits zero amp glow, no matter how long the exposure and how high the gain value is. Since it is implemented directly at the hardware level, it does not require software control.
ASI662 Manual 6. Getting to know your camera 6.1 External View ① USB 3.0 & USB 2.0 Input ② ST4 Guide port ③ IR Protective window D21*1mm ④ 1/4” screw: allowing you mount the camera to tripod.
6.4 Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) The ASI662 camera records in 12bit ADC and 10bit ADC. You can image at a faster fps rate if you use 10bit ADC (high speed mode). You can also set an ROI if you want even faster fps rate.
ASI662 Manual 6.5 Binning ASI662 camera supports software bin2 mode and hardware bin2 mode. And the biggest benefit is a faster frame rate. If you don't care about speed, we suggest you use software binning. 7. How to use your camera There are many adapters available for this camera for connecting to your scope or lens.
