ZWO ASI-Cooled Monochrome Astronomy Camera
Key Features
  • 61.2MP Sony IMX455 Full-Frame Sensor
  • 3.76µ Pixels, 51.4ke Well Depth
  • Low 0.86e Readout Noise
  • 6.3 FPS Frame Rate
Upgraded from the previous model with lower readout noise, a higher frame rate, and a matte finish, the ASI-Cooled Monochrome Astronomy Camera from ZWO enables beautiful photos of deep-sky objects. Equipped with a full-frame Sony IMX455 monochrome CMOS sensor, the camera achieves 61.2MP resolution with 0.8e read noise, 6,3 frames per second, and no amp glow. The two-stage thermoelectric cooler lowers the sensor temperature by 95°F below ambient, dramatically reducing dark current noise for a clean image even with very long exposures.

ZWO ASI6200MM-P25 Overview

Upgraded from the previous model with lower readout noise, a higher frame rate, and a matte finish, the ASI-Cooled Monochrome Astronomy Camera from ZWO enables beautiful photos of deep-sky objects. Equipped with a full-frame Sony IMX455 monochrome CMOS sensor, the camera achieves 61.2MP resolution with 0.8e read noise, 6,3 frames per second, and no amp glow. The two-stage thermoelectric cooler lowers the sensor temperature by 95°F below ambient, dramatically reducing dark current noise for a clean image even with very long exposures.

The polyimide heater prevents condensation from interrupting your imaging, but you can also turn it off to save power. Speaking of power, you'll need a 12V, 3A DC power supply (5.5 x 2.1mm, center-positive) sold separately.

Full-Frame 62MP Sensor
The ASI6200MM-P25 features a back-illuminated 36 x 24mm Sony sensor with a resolution of 9576 x 6388. The 3.76µ pixel accommodates an impressive full well capacity of 51.4ke. The sensor boasts a quantum efficiency of 91%.
Native 16-Bit Analog to Digital Converter
The ASI6200MM-P25 delivers true 16-bit ADC with a dynamic range output of 14 stops. This produces high image sharpness and contrast, and the contrast gradients are smoother and more natural-looking.
Two-Stage TEC Cooling
The sensor can be cooled to 95°F below the ambient temperature, holding down dark current noise; when the sensor is cooled to 32°F, a 300-second exposure of only 0.7e dark current noise in total, even lower than the camera's readout noise.
High Conversion Gain Mode
HCG mode comes on automatically when gain is set to 100, and it keeps readout noise very low while maintaining the 14-stop dynamic range.
No Amp Glow
Using zero-glow amp circuitry, the ASI6200MM-P25 eliminates amp glow—a weak infrared light source often created by traditional CMOS sensors, sometimes seen in the corners of uncalibrated images. You won't have to worry about it, even during high-gain, long-exposure imaging.
Anti-Dew Heater
A polyimide heater sits on the top of the protective window, preventing condensation that could disrupt your imaging. It consumes about 5 watts and can be disabled to conserve power.
USB 3.0 & 512MB DDR3 Memory
The ASI6200MM-P25 is equipped with a USB 3.0 transmission interface and a built-in 512MB DDR3 cache to ensure stable and secure data transmission. Under long exposure, it effectively avoids frame dropping and greatly reduces the glow effect caused by slow reading speed.
