ASI6200 Pro uses Sony's back-illuminated IMX455 Full Frame format native 16-bit ADC sensor. It has 3.76microns, ultra-low 0.86e readout noise and an innovative breakthrough resulting in zero amp-glow.
Exquisite Craftsmanship for a Premium Imaging Experience
Meticulous design, uncompromising quality.
The body weighs just 0.7 kg (1.54 lbs), yet delivers outstanding image performance.
Zero Amp Glow - worry-free imaging even with long exposures and high gain.
The ASI6200 Pro features a true "zero amp glow" sensor, delivering exceptionally clean dark frames. Even during long exposures or at high gain settings, astrophotographers can easily capture high-quality images.
Anti-dew
ASI6200MC Pro comes with the polyimide heater that can avoid any dew problems. The anti-dew heater which completely fit the protective window will heat it to avoid any dew problems.
Extraordinary performance captures the beauty of the universe
Full Frame format
The ASI6200 Pro camera uses a full-frame format. The outstanding 9576 x6388 resolution provided by the onboard Sony IMX455 sensor makes this camera a 61.2-megapixel full frame powerhouse! The sensor length and width are 36mm x 24mm respectively, and the diagonal is 43.3mm. This is a camera with a small pixel size of 3.76um that can accommodate a large well depth of 51.4ke.
Native 16bit ADC
ASI6200 Pro camera is our first batch of CMOS astronomy cameras with true 16-bit ADC. It is not a CCD-style 16-bit ADC - it really can achieve a dynamic range output of 14 stops. This significantly improves the image sharpness and contrast, and the contrast gradients are smoother and more natural-looking.
Two-stage TEC cooling
Thanks to its two-stage TEC cooling system, the ASI6200 Pro can reduce the CMOS sensor temperature by 30 Degree C-35 Degree C below ambient, significantly lowering dark current and sensor noise even during long exposures.
Practical features for effortless astrophotography
USB3.0 & 512M DDR3 Memory
The ASI6200 Pro camera is equipped with a USB 3.0 transmission interface and a built-in 512MB DDR3 cache to ensure stable and secure data transmission.
Three sets of screws
The sensor is adjusted by three sets of screws, enabling precise calibration. (Each set consists of a push-pull screw pair.)
Camera Performance: Low readout noise, high dynamic range
The ASI6200 Pro camera has excellent performance with a dynamic range of up to 14 stops that will greatly reduce the issue of overexposed images, and make color gradients look smoother and more natural-looking.
Note: External power supplies are needed for all ASI-cooled cameras. We recommend you use a 12V@3A-5A DC adapter (D5.5 x2.1mm, center pole positive) or a lithium battery with 11-14V to power the camera. Be aware that using a power supply out of this voltage range will probably lead to irreparable damage to the camera.
