ZWO ASI2600MC Duo CMOS Color Camera with Guiding Sensor
AED 7,400.00
- Sony IMX571 main sensor: The ASI2600MC Duo features a Sony IMX571 color sensor with a 26-megapixel resolution of 6248×4176. This sensor is known for its excellent low-light performance and high dynamic range.
- Built-in guide sensor: The ASI2600MC Duo has a built-in guide sensor that eliminates the need for a separate guide scope or off-axis guider. This makes it a very compact and portable camera that is ideal for travel astrophotography.
- 16-bit ADC: The ASI2600MC Duo features a 16-bit ADC, which provides a high dynamic range of 14 stops. This means that the camera can capture detail in both the brightest and darkest parts of an image.
- Low readout noise: The ASI2600MC Duo has a low readout noise of 1.0e, which helps to keep images clean and free of noise.
- Full well capacity: The ASI2600MC Duo has a full well capacity of 73ke, which means that it can capture very bright objects without clipping.
- No amp glow: The ASI2600MC Duo does not suffer from amp glow, which is a common problem with CMOS cameras. This makes it ideal for long exposure astrophotography.
- USB 3.0 connection: The ASI2600MC Duo connects to your computer via a USB 3.0 connection, which provides fast data transfer speeds.
- Back-illuminated sensor: The ASI2600MC Duo features a back-illuminated sensor, which improves sensitivity and noise reduction.

Description
The ASI2600MC Duo combines imaging and guiding sensors in one compact body. The main sensor is the Sony IMX571 coming with a native 16-bit ADC,14stops dynamic range, and a 3.76um square pixel array. The readout noise is as low as 1.0e, and the full well capacity reaches an incredible level of 73ke. And it has no amp glow! The guide sensor is the Type 1/1.8 SC2210 with excellent NIR sensitivity. The sensor size is 7.68mm x 4.32mm. It has 4umx4um pixels with an array of 1920×1080 and a full depth of 8780e. The stars on the corner of the guide images affected by reducers back focus distance might not be very round. It is not due to the sensor tilt and will not affect normal use.
Two-in-one design
Thanks to the compact design, the ASI2600MC Duo only needs one USB cable for control. It reduces potential cabling issues and improves setup speeds. You don’t need a separate OAG and guide camera.
Guide sensor
The SC2210 sensor taken from the ASI220MM Mini camera features very high sensitivity. The QE peak value reaches 92% at 500nm. The readout noise is as low as 0.6e. As the new generation of guide sensor, it has achieved great results in guiding, proved by hundreds of astrophotographers.
Main sensor
The main sensor IMX571 features an APS-C format and 26MP total pixels. The size is 23.5mm in width x 15.7mm in height, and the diagonal is 28.3mm. The 3.76um x 3.76um small pixel size accommodates an impressive full depth of 50ke. With the new hardware technology, it is even extended to 73ke.
STARVIS technology
ASI2600MC DUO is based on Sony STARVIS technology. Sony’s back-illuminated CMOS image sensor improves sensitivity and noise reduction – the key factors to enhancing image quality.
