ASI094MC Pro camera exploits Sony’s IMX094 full-frame sensor (36 mm x 24 mm). It is ZWO first full-frame cooled color camera. This camera has 7376 x 4928 pixels, it supports BIN2, BIN3, BIN4 mode. The pixel size is 4.88 μm x 4.88 μm. This camera provides 14bit ADC and its full well is 52000e.
ASI094 Pro offers very good performance for astrophotography. Low read noise, high dynamic range, QE peak 56% and much more.
Compared with old full frame CCD such as KAI-11002, IMX094 has higher resolution, higher QE, lower read noise and faster FPS.
ASI128MC Pro camera integrates Sony IMX128 full-frame sensor (36 mm x 24 mm). It is ZWO full-frame cooled camera. This camera has 6032 x 4032 pixels, also supports BIN2, BIN3, BIN4 mode. The pixel size is 5.97 μm x 5.97 μm. This camera provides 14bit ADC and its full well is 76000e.
ASI128 Pro offers very good performance for astrophotography. Low read noise, high dynamic range, QE peak 53%, AR protective window and much more.
Compared with old full frame CCD such as KAI-11002, IMX128 has higher resolution, higher QE, lower read noise and faster FPS.
New with the introduction of the ASI094 Pro camera and ASI128 Pro is an onboard 256MB DDR3 memory buffer. It ensures more stable data transfer and eliminates any amp-glow encountered with slower USB2.0 port during image read out.
DDR memory buffer is the main difference between ASI “Cooled” series and “Pro” series cameras.
ASI094 Pro and ASI128 Pro includes unique tilt adapter. Say goodbye to tilt problems forever !
USB 3.0 Port: can provide 5Gb bandwidth to let ASI094 Pro run at 5 fps(14bit, normal mode) and ASI128 Pro run at 7 fps (14bit, normal mode) at full resolution.
ASI094 Pro and ASI128 Pro have one full frame sensor, so the power consumption (650mA@5V) is much higher than other cameras. But USB3.0 can provide 1000mA current, so camera can run standalone under USB3.0 host, it doesn’t need external power supply.
You need to connect the external 12v power supply if you connect the camera to USB 2.0 host which can only provide 500ma current.
we recommends 12V at 3A or more DC adapter for cooler power supply(2.1*5.5, center positive)
Battery from 9-15V is also suitable for cooler power supply
USB 2.0 HUB: can connect with various accessories, such as filter wheel, guide camera and electronic focuser, so you can manage your cable better with USB2.0 hub. There are 2 short 0.5m USB2.0 cable come with ASI094 Pro and ASI128 Pro. the power of hub source from external power supply if you connect it.
ASI094 Pro and ASI128 Pro have 2 stage TEC cooling system to enable very deep cooling (-35℃ below ambient). you need external power supply to power on the cooler. AC-DC power adapter is not included in this package, you can order from here.
The anti-dew heater can heat the protect window to avoid any dew problem happens, the heat power is around 6W and can be turn off in software to save power.
ASI094 Pro and ASI128 Pro box includes all necessary cables, drivers, adapters, and manuals.

This is what I have been hoping for…. maybe a monochrome version is coming ???
Sam Wen
I am sure there is mono full frame in the future
Alexander Novikov
When? 🙂 I’d love to have one if it works as well as color cameras do. Hell, it would be great to have even 4/3” mono camera – but with 14 bit readout.
Sam Wen
we already released these cameras, more CMOS camera will come in the future
Michael Karmazyn
Can the ASI128MC Pro do color binning?
Sam Wen
yes, All ASI cameras support color and mono binning
Pat Bunn
I h ave the ASI 128 and I understand that I need a UV filter. I plan to use an ONAG which has a cold mirror that passes the UV through to the guide camera. Will this allow me to not use a UV filter?
Sean Wang
I still think UV ir cut filter is necessary. ONAG is allow IR, but still have some IR reflected into main camera.
Martin Kates
Why were the two full frame cmos cameras discontinued? Do you plan on re releasing them in the future?
Katherine Tsai
This two sensors are too old.
Stephen Dubois
Where is the ASI094MC Pro and the ASI128 MC Pro? Why is there no more full frame sensor from ASI? Why you force customers to buy extremely expensive 60MP?
sara.liu
The ASI094MC Pro and the ASI128 MC Pro are discontinued.
We launched the 2600MM Pro this year; )

What is your latest MC full frame colour camera and price? I need two. One to fit a Celestron RASA 11″ and a Takahashi E180 astrograph.
Thank you,
sara.liu
ASI6200MC Pro is our latest full frame color camera, it is $3999.
