Source & details
- Source category: estimated
- Estimated response: not a primary measurement (e.g. diffraction-grating closed-form recovery, model prediction). Independent of profile_type and quality/confidence grades.
- Type: estimated
- Estimated response, not a direct measurement; quality and confidence are assessed separately.
- Quality: unassessed
- Quality has not been assessed; no grade is inferred. Raster graph digitization; source measurement uncertainty is not documented.
- Confidence: unassessed
- Confidence has not been assessed; no confidence level is inferred. Exact chip and mode documented; complete camera equivalence is not established.

- digitized from manufacturer graph
- As-is
- Samples rendered verbatim: no smoothing, no interpolation, no zero-padding, no gap bridging in the browser. Documented null sparse cells render as visible gaps.
- Uncertainty
- Extraction tolerance is documented in the downloadable JSON; it does not quantify source measurement uncertainty.

- Known limitations
- This is the separately labeled monochrome SC2210_BW guide-camera curve, not the main IMX571 sensor curve.
- The chart labels QE (%); ZWO reports an estimated peak near 92% at 500 nm. Measurement uncertainty and optical-window contribution are not separated.
- Other SC2210 cameras are linked through the documented sensor identity, not a claim of identical complete-camera response.

Image area and resolution are documented for this reference camera; other cameras may use a different crop or binning mode.
ZWO ASI2600 DUO manual identifies SC2210_BW as the monochrome guide sensor, derived from ASI220MM Mini. The dimensions refer to this guide module. SmartSens manufacturer product listings confirm the sensor maker.
Sensor-level response data is available. Camera filters and windows can change the complete camera response.
