The ASI2600MC/MM Duo is an innovative two-in-one solution for astrophotographers, combining imaging and guiding sensors into a single, compact body. Designed for ultimate convenience and superior performance, this camera offers cutting-edge features for capturing breathtaking images of the night sky.
APS-C with 26MP resolution.
3.76µm square pixels for fine detail.
14 stops, with a native 16-bit ADC for smooth tonal transitions.
Extended to 73ke for less overexposure during long exposures.
Eliminates infrared glow for clean, high-quality images.
7.68mm x 4.32mm, 1920 x 1080 resolution.
4µm x 4µm.
Peak value at 92% for exceptional guiding performance.
Sony’s back-illuminated CMOS technology boosts sensitivity and reduces noise, delivering sharper images with improved clarity in low-light conditions.
Achieves 15 FPS in RAW 8 mode at full resolution, outperforming the ASI2600MC/MM Pro.
Gain set to -25 extends the full well capacity to 73ke, enhancing dynamic range and reducing overexposure risks.
Cools the CMOS sensor 30-35°C below ambient temperature, minimizing dark current noise for extended exposure sessions.
Integrated polyimide heater prevents dew or icing on the protective window, with a power draw of just 5W. Can be turned off to conserve battery.
Combines imaging and guiding sensors in one body.
Requires just one USB cable, reducing setup complexity and cabling issues.
Adjust tilt via three rear adjustment points without removing the tilt plate, simplifying fine-tuning.
Features a 512MB DDR3 buffer for stable data transmission.
No Amp Glow: Ensures clean images even at high gain and long exposures.
High Quantum Efficiency: Over 80% QE for the ASI2600MC Duo and 91% QE for the ASI2600MM Duo.
Optimized Design: Compact, user-friendly, and highly reliable.
Cooling System: Advanced TEC cooling for extended imaging sessions.
