An obvious example was me playing with my new camera (ASI294) it is not really set up for planetary imaging but I will be giving it a shot anyway.

Using the ASICAP software as APT does not seem to recognise this one for capturing multiple frames, if I let it produce video and run it in full resolution it produces a couple of frames a second due to the read time, where if I pulled it down to 1/16 of the sensor it jumped up to near 200fps.

I did not investigate further at the time but that may or may not have been limited by my exposure settings. Obviously if you are exposing for a hundredth of a second then the best frame rate you will be able to get will be somewhere slightly below 100 frames per second.

Again, it is not "Low res" as such, just reduced area on the chip. The software even calls it basically that, "Region of interest"
