When you go over full well (saturation) then you get blooming on some cameras, the excess photons spill into adjacent wells (messy)That's why most chips have anti blooming gates, they skim off spilled over photons so you can keep exposing after saturation. It's safe to continue exposing on an ABG chip so you can get faint stuff, it just means stars have no colour (rgb all saturated =white stars).
