I recently received a new ZWO ASI676MC along with the supplied 2.5mm f/1.2 fisheye lens.
My plan is to use this as an All-Sky camera, but I might also use it for planetary imaging -- I generally use a square ROI anyhow, so I figure why not start with a square sensor.
While testing out the camera with ZWO lens , it seems the sensor is not centered. Attached is an over-exposed "flat" image from ASI Studio. Note the reticle is off-center quite a bit from the lens body.
I checked to see if this is an issue with the lens -- while rotating the lens on the camera body threads, the narrow part did not move around with the lens rotation... so I think its an issue with the body.
I can't find any software setting to adjust the sensor position. Eg is there a portion of the sensor where pixels are masked for readout?
Is there a possible hardware fix?
Or... is this just a defective unit?
For the AllSky camera, it will just barely work... I would likely need to figure out how to crop just the three sides to get it consistent. I'd prefer if the sensor was centered with the body.
thx for any input.
