Successor to the ASI385MC-COOL or ASI178MC-COOL for EAA?

koinonos

While I have and enjoy the ASI1600MC-Cool, I want to find a smaller, cooled resolution camera like the ASI385MC-COOL or ASI178MC-COOL for my 9.25 SCT + HyperStar rig for EAA for looking at Galaxies, Planetary Nebulas, and small DSO's.

Since the ASIAIR Pro does not yet implement ROI features to lower the FOV/resolution of the current 2019/2020 cooled cameras, I really want a 1920x1080 resolution camera with larger 3.8 - 4.5 pixel sizes for high sensitivity. The use case is star parties for faster integration/live stacking time in front of an audience.

Will there be an EAA specialized camera coming in 2020 or 2021 to replace the 178MC-COOL or 385MC-COOL?

Thanks!

Kind Regards,

For me the new IMX482 sensor is the answer to your question. ; ;)

Best.
