Do you find that is lower noise than the ASI120mm?
How is your FPS vs the ASI120mm? Did you have a USB2 version with the ASI120mm?

Yes John it has considerable less noise than the ASI120mm-S and much less than the USB2 ASI120mm both of which I own. The vertical banding on both cameras was difficult to deal with. fps appears to be a little less than the ASI120mm-S although until I get good seeing it's hard to be accurate. So far I'm very impressed but will need a few more hours use before I'm totally convinced. The demands on the USB3 bus are high so quality hardware is essential.
I'll be keeping the ASI120mm USB2 as a guide camera for my new scope and the ASI120mm-S does very well on my Lunt 80mm SS.
