Hi all.
Just a general question to those who are imaging with these sensors.
How many mb are the Lights from these chips.
Thanks in advance

IMX455 -> 122.4MB (resolution x 2 Bytes i.e. 16Bit per pixel)

Hi Peter,

here is a little, handy calculator for image filesizes. Just enter the bit depth, and width, height in pixels and it shows you the filesize.

https://www.omnicalculator.com/other/image-file-size

So for the IMX571 with 16 bit it is 51.88 MB
and for the IMX 455 with 16 bit it is 122.09 MB

The actual size shown on your computer depends on your filesystem (WIndows, Apple OS, MAC, Linux) but this shows you the raw numbers and you get the idea of it.

Hope this helps!

BR,
Michael

This will also change depending on the camera firmware, more precisely if it saves the overscan area or not

Brilliant. Thanks Michael I'm thinking of  of a system built around either and this will be a great help.
