ZWO
ZWO ASI715MC Colour Camera
$319.00
Fine sampling for planets and small targets
The ASI715MC uses a compact Sony IMX715 colour sensor with 1.45 µm pixels for planetary imaging and small deep-sky targets.
Fine sampling
The small pixels place 3864 × 2192 samples across the compact sensor.
Capture a sequence
ZWO rates the camera at up to 45.1 frames per second.
Capture faint signal
ZWO quotes read noise as low as 0.72 e⁻ and an 80% peak quantum efficiency.
A compact camera with buffered USB 3.0
The ASI715MC uses USB 3.0 and a 256 MB memory buffer to support sustained data transfer during high-frame-rate capture.
Sensor curves and setup diagrams
Full well
The charge a pixel can hold before saturation. The curve starts at about 6,000 electrons and falls as gain increases.
Conversion gain
The electrons represented by one digital count. The plotted value drops as gain increases, with a steeper decline at lower settings.
Dynamic range
The span between the noise floor and saturation. It declines progressively over the plotted gain range, from around 11 to about 5 stops.
Read noise
Noise introduced when the sensor is read. The largest drop is at low gain. Higher settings give progressively smaller reductions.
Relative spectral response
The curves show the relative response of each colour channel. They are closer together in the near infrared than across much of the visible band.
