Re: ASI 294mm Bin Modes
Hi,
yes, that's correct - ZWO have hidden the switch between 11 megapixel and 46 megapixel mode behind the binning value, which is firstly a bit confusing and secondly interferes with the way SharpCap handles sensor read noise/sensitivity data.
In order to avoid those problems, SharpCap now splits out a separate 'Read Mode' control which can be set to 46 or 11 Megapixel. In 11 megapixel mode you get the options of bin 1 and 2 (which would be bin 2 and bin 4 in other applications which don't have a read mode control). In 46 megapixel you get the options of bin 1 and bin 3 (which would be bin 1 and bin 3 in other applications).
cheers,
Robin

Got it and that makes sense! Thanks for clarifying.
