I need some help in filling in specs for astrophotography. What is the pixal size on the cmos, 6.42x6.42um? What is the d/a bit depth, 10,12,14?
I'll start with this.
Thanks

I believe you have the correct micron width of the sensor sites. I also get 6.42 micron when dividing the 22.5 mm sensor width by 3504 pixels (highest resolution width).
According the manual, bit depth is 12 bit.

Ricky,
Thank you. I was confused when the spacs said 6.42um between pixels and I'm quessing they are square.

The sensor sites are indeed square.
