PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ZWO ASI2600MC Pro is a cooled, high-performance color astronomy camera built around Sony’s IMX571 sensor (APS-C format). It delivers 26 megapixels of high-resolution data with 3.76 µm pixels, excellent quantum efficiency for broadband imaging, and a 16-bit ADC for wide dynamic range — all in a compact, cooled body with USB3 connectivity. The camera’s two-stage TEC cooler lowers sensor temperature well below ambient (typical ΔT up to ~35°C), reducing dark current for long-exposure deep-sky imaging. Ideal for serious wide-field and medium-format imaging rigs.
