Best gain for ZWO ASI2600MM Pro in spectroscopy

Technology Instrumentation & Equipment

Dear all,

Last month I received a new spectroscope and added a ZWO ASI2600MM Pro to it as science camera. There is a marked decrease in readout noise when going from gain 99 to 100. I have seen linearity tests at gain 0 here, but not at gain 100, so I wondered what the best gain is for spectroscopy using this camera (and why).

Thanks in advance for your answer!
kind regards,
Nicolàs

I’m your google search specialist Jim (DEY) I’ll take payment in land, no taxes, an installed working and networked 12.5 inch or larger telescope that is mine, all mine! I’m serious. :+1:
