ASI585 Manual 3. Camera technical specifications Sensor SONY IMX585 CMOS Format 1/1.2” Diagonal 12.84mm Resolution 8.29 Mega Pixel, 3840*2160 Pixel size µ m Sensor size 11.2mm * 6.3mm Max fps 46.9 Shutter Rolling shutter Exposure range 32µs-2000s Readout noise 0.8 ~ 12e (2.4e@15db gain)
The following figure shows the QE curve of ASI585. According to our measurement, the QE peak of ASI585 is 91%. As you can see from the camera performance graph, the readout noise of ASI585 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 at low gain.
ASI585 Manual 5. No amp glow ASI585 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.
