Having tried using the DSI on a USB 1.0 and using it on a USB 2.0 since I'd say YES, USB 2.0 is a necessity! 1.0 will run the camera, but not proficiently...
I have a DSI and it works OK, but I wanted to be able to take better DSO pictures so I purchased a DSI Pro. I had assumed that they would use the same focus,...
Hi Leonard, Very pretty, great color rendering :o) I am puzzled though by the elongated stars. Did you de-rotate the frames? The other causes I can think of ...
Tim, Noticed your comment about wanting to autoguide the NexStar scope with the DSI. Rob Beck makes an LX200 emulator, the Star Mate, that works great. I'm...

Hey, I've been there too. I pointed this out to Mr. Wade a while ago and he explained.... When dealing with a "color" image, you need to covert the mask to...

hi guy's Last night was my first try at an image using exposures longer than 30 sec. I took this image using 42.2 sec. exposures I took 20x42.2 luminance ...
Dave, Before you do the "Load Selection" change the mode of the image you are using for the brightness mask (the duplicated image not the main color image) to...

Micheal and Don Thanks for the answer. I figured it was something simple like that, but me being simple minded doesn't help. Also Don, thanks for the great ...

Paul, I had the same problems the first time I tried to image Mars. Imaging planets requires that you lower the exposure time just like you did. In most of my...

Kieth thanks much for taking the time to answer the questions. In my system (Lx90 8" SCT) the .03xxx exposure was too much. In fact those first two images...
Frank: I've got an SN8. When I use the DSI-Pro, the focus point is very close to bottoming out my drawtube. There's a couple of things you can do about it. ...
Hi Franciscus, Buddy gave you the right advice, I also have one of those adapter and it works fine. Try to stick with ED lenses to keep your star images small,...
Hi, Frank If memory serves, there is an extension tube in the focuser that can be removed and will give you the extra in-focus you need. The DSI-Pro has a 15mm...
Hi Frank, When you say the focuser was all the way down, do you mean in or out? If it is all the way in, then you need an extension tube. Orion has some very...
Hi Neil; yes that is true. Tom King suggested a histogram balance; I loaded the image into Registax and adjusted the RGB histograms to have the same peak...
