is this a procedural error or is this common knowledge.
If you bin 2x2 you collapse 4 pixels of the bayer matrix into 1 so you end up with a mono. That is half the width and height of the original.
I believe if you wanted to calibrate the binned file you'd have to bin your calibration frames as well.
