This color CMOS USB 3.0 camera from ZWO features the Sony IMX585 sensor, with a 2.9 micrometer pixel size and a full-well depth of 40ke. The IMX585 sensor provides a large resolution of 3840 x 2160 with 8.29 megapixels, as well as very high sensitivity and very low read out noise.
Considered an improvement of the 485, the The IMX585 sensor measures 11.2 mm x 6.3 mm, with a diagonal of 12.86 mm. A major benefit of this sensor is the incorporation of STARVIS 2 technology. This allows for excellent visibility at low illumination, and can provide high light efficiency and high astrophotographic quality in visible and near-infrared light spectra. Compared to the ASI485MC, the 585 features zero amp glow, a lower dark current noise, and a 3x larger full well capacity. In addition, the 585 is more sensitive to red, green, and near infrared (NIR) lights. It also has a 1.5x greater light sensitivity than the 485MC. This CMOS camera is ideal for solar, lunar, and planetary imaging, and can also be used as an all-sky camera.
