It is perfectly suited for meteor recording and full sky surveillance. The square format facilitates easier composition, making mosaic stitch simpler and more efficient, and the high resolution brings you clear details of the Sun and our Moon. With this camera, you may start your marvelous journey to explore the boundless night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/2766\/files\/676_Highlights.webp?v=1768847304\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Square Format?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest benefits of ASI676MM's square format is it makes the whole mosaic construction process much easier by eliminating the need to consider the difference between the long and wide sides of the format during mosaic stitching.  Not only that, the square format also makes the ASI676MM more compatible with various types of lenses such as fisheye lenses and wide-angle lenses. Thus, ASI676MM is more suitable for tasks such as meteor recording and full sky surveillance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSony STARVIS 2\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTARVIS is a sensor technology developed by Sony that surpasses the sensitivity of the human eye.
