Page 3: Product Introduction
Not only that, the square format also makes the ASI676MC more compatible with various types of lenses such as fisheye lenses and wide-angle lenses. Thus, ASI676MC is more suitable for tasks such as meteor recording and full sky surveillance. - Page 4 No Amp Glow ASI676MC does not have any amp glow, no matter how long the exposure and how high the gain value you set. Note: This technology is implemented directly at the hardware level, it does not require software control.

Page 8: Quantum Efficiency & Read Noise
QE curve and read noise are very important parameters to measure the camera's performance. Higher QE and lower read noise are necessary to improve the image signal-to-noise ratio. We have calculated that the peak quantum efficiency of the ASI676MC is about 83%. Relative response ( ASI676MC ) - Page 9 Read Noise The camera has a built-in HCG mode, which can effectively reduce readout noise at high gain. This allows the camera to maintain the same high dynamic range as it does at low gain. When the gain is 180, the HCG mode is automatically turned on.
