Thanks Kel. Between your two replies you pretty much covered everything. dave...
I've been using an DSI-C on and off for a couple of years now and have never really made the time to get down to really squeezing the best out of this camera....
Envisage is still the best capture program for the DSI C imager For stacking and aligning ASIP will work fine but you can also use deep sky stacker which is...
Dear All, I am a new member of this group and I would like to ask some advice about a problem I have encountered with the DSI 2. My setup is : Windows XP with...
Hi Charles, First I suggest experimenting inside away from the telescope. Start with the supplied cable. If the camera is connect properly via hardware and...
Charles, further to what Jeff said if you have a smaller scope you can also connect the imager to it (in the daytime), point it out a window, and experiment...
Hi, I have the first model, color one shoot DSI. I am thinking of buying a DSI III PRO. Good/bad things of that camera? What about the one shot color? Any...
Mats, That's a big wide question, so I'll give my big wide opinion! IMHO, the primary reason to get a monochrome camera is that it is higher resolution than...
I agree with everything Kel states except I dont have to deal with the ocean. Regards Mark Mark ... -- M.T.S.O. http://Astronomy.Qteaser.com N 44° 35' 03" W...
It doesn't look like we have any submissions for the September challenge, vdB152. I gave it a shot, but all I got before the clouds rolled in was a barely...
Guys, I'm living in a very light polluted area, and even a 1.5 hours drive to a darker sight still gives me the horrible red in exposures longer than 1.5 min....
Hello all: I'm new to astrophotography. I'm been struggling with getting the dsi to focus on anything. The picture is grainy & not sharp at any stage. I...
Harel, There was a website that showed the color shift when using different light pollution filters but it's no longer accessible. The results showed that the...
Hi all, Just to inform you, I'm going to sell my DSI III Pro. It's complete with box, filter slide, 1 1/4 nosepiece, software, manuals, all cables, ... The...
Hi Jim, If you are new to this, it's normal to see what you are seeing. I am pretty confident that it is not a camera issue, it's about getting a feel of how...
Thanks for the fast reply. I have it on an etx90EC. I comes close to focused (though still fuzzy) with scope focuser all the way in. I guess that will...
In addition to what Nick said, one possibility is that your current scope setup is not able to place the camera at the right distance to reach focus. What kind...
Whoops, I was typing when you were typing. I believe the ETX90 has a built-in diagonal, right? In which case, it should be just a matter of finding the right...
Jim, If you are trying to shoot through the diagonal section of the scope you will not get the needed distance as you will run out of intravel. If you use the...
It is an ETX90EC. I've tried it with cam directly into eyepiece hole, with extensions, barlows, etc. to no avail. With it only mounted the focus is very...
I've thought of the rear mount but I don't think I'll have clearance for stargazing. Terrestrial would work but I don't think rear mounted will clear... I'll...
Thanks for the input! PRO it is :-) I think I will do better with a monocrome camera due to the possibilities it gives. I will use som additional filters. Got...
Hang on! Let's open September's challenge to *all targets* (astronomical, that is). All rules apply, including having gathered the data for the object in this...
Not meaning to hijack the thread, but this has been on my mind for a while and this seems like the moment to ask. How can a color and mono version of the same...
Hi Kevin, I was over-simplifying when I mentioned the 4:1 correlation between one-shot color and monochrome. There's not set rule of debayering that says that...
