Regards a mono 294, the glows calibrated out easily enough in the OSC version and it is probably reasonable to expect the same out of a mono version, but the 2600 seems to spit out images that are also cleaner overall. And I thought when I saw it that it would probably be the death knell for the ASI1600MM, just as the ASI294MC seemed to kill off the 1600MC.
Panasonic are no longer producing that CMOS sensor so it's probably well timed to kill of the ASI1600 as the only units still in production and left over stock.

I'm still waiting for a mono APS-C and it looks like it isn't far off now. Still undecided whether to go with an APS-C and be able to use my current filters or take the big step up to the full frame mono.
