Description

This image was an experiment to test some parameters of the camera.

I used Bin2 for luminance and color, and set gain at 76 for color. I tried to acquire as much images as possible with short exposure times. 

Sincerely, I am not completely happy with results. Although I got a huge amount of subs for luminance, Bin2 adds lot of noise to the image, really hard to reduce. So from my point of view, it is not a good idea to use Bin2 for luminance with ASI1600MM. 

Anyway, here is the result.
