Description

ASI294 is the first camera in the world equipped with SONY's latest sensor, the IMX294CJK.

ZWO has reworked Sony's sensor to provide a 23.2 mm diagonal (Type 4/3) with approximately 11.71M-Effective Pixel. Exceptional low-illumination performance of SNR1s: 0.14 lx is realized by use of a large-size optical system and by expanding the area per pixel to 4.63 µm. This makes the IMX294CJK ideal for astronomic camera market applications that require low-illumination performance.

ASI294 have 14bit ADC and it can achieve 13 stops dynamic range which is even better than the ASI1600. This camera also boasts 63700e full-well depth, which is 3 times than the ASI1600’s capacity. Even bright stars won’t saturate under long exposure.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Edward S. ★★★★★

Switched from a smaller sensor and the IMX294’s 4/3 format really lets me capture wider fields without losing detail on faint nebulae. The 11.71 megapixels give crisp stars even with my short exposures.

Zoe B. ★★★★★

The 4/3 sensor gives me way more sky coverage than I expected, and the cooling keeps noise down even on warm summer nights. First light was a revelation — my nebula shots have noticeably more detail and way less grain.

Chloe ★★★★★

Swapped from a smaller sensor camera and the 23.2mm diagonal on this one really makes a difference in framing, especially with my telescope. The 11.71 megapixels give me plenty of resolution for deep-sky shots without being too noisy.
