Coupled with large 11 μm x 11 μm pixels, it ensures ultra-high sensitivity. Additionally, the Dhyana 95 V2 has a readout noise of only 1.6 electrons and a full well capacity of approximately 100,000 electrons. This gives it a high dynamic range, enabling it to measure both strong and weak signals simultaneously, making it ideal for use in complex light intensity environments.

It is not recommended to use the DPC function for these applications or to use only the weakest correction level. The Dhyana 95 V2 adopts dynamic defective pixel correction, correcting using a 3x3 matrix of pixels. Currently, four correction levels are available, each corresponding to different thresholds, thereby controlling the intensity of defective pixel correction.
