The sensor size is 11.2mm in width x 6.3mm in height and the diagonal is 13.2mm. The small pixel size of 2.9µm x 2.9µm offers high resolution and a good full-well capacity of 40ke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuiding sensor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SC2210 sensor taken from the ASI220MM Mini camera features very high sensitivity. The QE peak value reaches 92% at 500nm and the read noise is as low as 0.6e. As a new generation of guide sensor, it has achieved great results in guiding, already proven by hundreds of Astrophotographers worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffortlessly connect multiple devices: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4x USB2.0, 2 x DC 12Volts 10Amps, 1x USB Type-C\u003cbr\u003eUSB 2.0 ports for your focuser, filter wheel, and mount, DC 12V 10A input\/output ports for reliable power, and USB Type-C port for fast file transfers to computer - now you can focus on capturing stunning images without worrying about connectivity issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShoot with confidence: ample storage and stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a massive 256GB eMMC storage, the ASI585MC Air allows you to capture multiple targets with ease. Rigorously tested with over 300 benchmarks, it ensures system stability and with the USB 2.0 ports which support up to 1 TB external storage, you will have plenty of room for all your astrophotography needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDive into the rich details of the celestial objects:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe full-well capacity of this camera is 40ke, making long exposure images less prone to overexposure. The good full-well capacity and high dynamic range make it possible to capture both bright and dark areas with amazing clarity and detail.

When the gain is 200, the HCG mode will turn on automatically. This results in readout noise of just over 1e-, while the dynamic range can still reach almost 12 f-stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eNote\u003c\/span\u003e: Previously, HCG mode switched on at a gain of 252. To switch on at a gain of 200, you must update ASIAIR or ASIStudio.

An ST-4 autoguider cable to the mount is therefore mot required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstant post-processing and sharing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLive stack is supported during your imaging session.

During storage, the silica gel absorbs the moisture from the camera. At the same time, the penetration of moist room air is prevented. Dry storage can even partially regenerate the small desiccant tablets in cooled cameras. Your camera or accessories will therefore always be ready for you in optimum condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cameras are not airtight, so if the camera remains on the telescope, it is exposed to moisture. The small amount of desiccant in the camera can protect the sensor and the inside of the protective glass from moisture for the duration of the exposure, but not for days on end. Moisture problems can be the result. A simple trick is to stretch a plastic bag around the focuser to which the camera is attached so that no air can get in. Silica gel is placed in a small cloth bag inside the plastic bag. This will also create a \"dry climate zone\" for the camera on the telescope. This allows you to leave the camera on the telescope for a few days for an imaging session lasting several days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the medium and long term, however, this is no substitute for proper storage in an airtight case with silica gel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCamera Spec:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensor:
