ASI 1600 MM-Cool Sensitivty

In a similar vein to my previous 'sensitivity' question :-

http://zwoug.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=6566&hilit=sensitivity

what is the sensitivity of the ASI1600MM-Cool - is it more or less sensitive than the ASI 224.

thanks in advance

if you compare one mono camera with one color camera

the answer is yes, 1600 is more sensitive

but 224 is more sensetive than 1600 color

Thanks Sam.

Was thinking of using the 1600 for RGB imaging of Jupiter & Mars and was hoping the 1600 was more sensitive to give me good frame rates at low gain (75?) through the filters.

the performance of 1600 for planetary imaging just like ASI120MM
