Provided below are specifications for the existing MAGIQ guider camera hardware. These include general camera specifications as well as performance specifications.

The Zero Point values quoted below are the magnitude for the detection of an object with 1 ADU. The flux is for 1 ADU/second.

Sensitivities: The estimated sensitivites are for a S/N=10 in a one second exposure. The background noise is assumed to be twice the total background flux in a one arcsec apperture. The source is measured in a 1 arcesec app and the sky is measured in a similar app.
