Hi John. The camera is very basic and has no amp-off mod applied, or binning. The amp noise appears to be very much reduced compared to the ICX098 series, and I don't know if we have dark enough skies here in the UK at least, to warrant 60s exposures at 100% gain ;^))
Very nice images of M63 AND M94 btw!
Cheers
Greg

<p> Hi Greg,
Very impressive result - you're right to be pleased with yourself! Given that you've managed to image galaxies with such short exposures, the dark frame is remarkably clean. Have you implemented an amp-off mod?
Cheers,
Jon.
