Does look like blooming though.....bit of a bummer.
Hi Louie,

It's a "feature" of the KAF-8300 chip. Some camera vendors get around it by reducing the gain. My SX camera showed this problem and the suggested solution was to adjust a trim pot on the PCB to reduce the gain. QSI 583/683 cameras have a low gain mode that you're supposed to turn on when you're binning. Not sure how FLI handle it but perhaps they tweak the gain automatically depending on the binning mode?

Cheers,
Rick.
