ZWO has created a back-illuminated CMOS Image Sensor with 14bit ADC    ZWO has designed a CMOS image sensor which has a 1/1.8"and 6.4M pixels sensor IMX178 with SONY STARVIS and Exmor R Technology.  Astrophotography Performance: Extremely low read noise(1.4e-2.2 e) , 1.4e @27db, high sensitivity and 14bit ADC make it very suitable for astronomy and microscopy high resolution photograph.   USB 3.0 Port & ST4 Port: USB 3.0 Port: can provide 5Gb bandwidth to let ASI178 run at 30 fps (14bit, normal mode) or 60 fps (10bit, high speed mode) at full resolution(6.4Mega). ST4 Port: can be used connect with auto guide port of mount, for guiding.   Supported resolution 10bit ADC/14bit ADC3096×2080 60fps / 30fps2560×2048 62fps / 31fps2048×1080 116fps / 58fps1280×960 130fps / 65fps800×600 204.7fps / 102.3fps640×480 253.1fps / 126.5fps320×240 479.7fps / 239.8fps USB2.03096×2080 6fps2560×2048 8fps2048×1080 19fps1280×960 34fps800×600 89.5fps640×480 139.9fps320×240 479.7fpsMore resolutions can be defined by user     About ZWO Optical Astrophotography has never been easier. Established in 2011, ZWO Optical is a fast-growing global astroimaging camera powerhouse based in Suzhou China. They focus on building and innovating ground-breaking CMOS cameras such as the iconic ZWO ASI120MM Monochrome CMOS camera (the first-ever planetary CMOS camera to beat a CCD in the early 2010s). ZWO continues to pioneer new astrophotography technology with revolutionary features to capture exceptional quality of images of space that will last you a lifetime. Today, ZWO cameras are recognised by every passionate astrophotographer and are available in over 25 countries internationally. Product Code: ZWO-ASI178MC
