So at the beginning, we were considering to use mono sensor to design our guide camera only. Because mono sensor has much higher sensitivity than color ones. After that, we carefully compared the sensitivity of our sensors. At last, we decide to use 290 and 174  mono sensor. As we know, 290 and 174 mono sensor have about 80% QE peak, can detect more stars in view.

Colour is produced by a Bayer matrix over the pixels, so a single exposure carries full colour information — no filter wheel, no channel alignment. At 2 µm, the pixels are small enough to critically sample a long focal-length instrument, which is exactly what lucky imaging wants. The trade-off is well depth. A 10.55 ke– full well fills quickly on a bright limb, so exposure discipline matters more than it does on a large-pixel deep-sky camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMechanically the camera is a 62 mm barrel weighing 126 g, with 12.5 mm of back focus from the sensor to the front flange.
