The ZWO ASI462MC is the latest colour planetary camera which features the Sony IMX462 1/2.8” format 12bit ADC sensor.
The 2.9um pixel size accommodates a well depth of 11.2ke with a total of 2.1 megapixels. The sensor length and width are 5.6mm*3.2mm and the diagonal is 6.46mm. The resolution is 1936*1096.

With the ability to capture infrared light, the super high sensitivity and ultra low readout noise, this camera can be considered the upgraded version of ASI290MC, and offers great performance for planetary, solar and lunar imaging.

The ASI462 has very high QE value at 800-1000nm wavelength (almost 2 times higher than that of ASI290MC). Its sensitivity in the near infrared light region ranks it first among all ASI planetary cameras.
