Guys, I am contemplating buying a DSI pro II or III to use for strengthening the Halpha and Luminosity portions of my DSLR wide field images (mainly for ...

Hi, DSI III has a smaller pixel size (6.45 microns) than the DSI II (8.3 microns), so if the field of view and the resolution are not too important I would go...
What an incredible image and sight. Did you by chance take any shots with less exposure? Something that would better reveal Venus as a crescent as well? I...
Hi Craig, Very nicely done! You made a very good choice for exposure, which preserved the "Earth-shine" features visible on the Moon's shadow side. We were...
Hi Craig, Nice shot showing the Earthshine. Here's my version (Panasonic 12x zoom) which starts to show the Venus crescent :-) but no Earthshine :-( ...
I would greatly appreciate hearing from those of you who use Meade's 'Autostar Suite' to do preliminary processing of your "original DSI color" images. I use...
I have the DSI C and Envisage Version 7.05. My question is regarding the box labled "single shot" next to the file type selection in the save process menu....
Barry- M31 and M42 are very large objects in general but particularly relative to the field of view of your 10" f/10 scope and smaller size of any of the DSI...
Jamie, When that is selected, Envisage will only shot one image instead continuously exposing until the Stop button is pressed. Don ... From: "Jamie Graf"...
New member saying hi to the group. I am an amateur astronomer of many years, becoming fairly active the last 5 years or so. I finally got a laptop and...
Hi Tim, Welcome to the group. Your experiences so far have hit upon some extreme corner cases in total equipment: fantastic tracking with looonng focal length...
March and April will be open challenges, any target. All other rules apply (see pdf in Files / Challenge Entries and Information). We can get back to specific...
Hi Tim, I use a Celestron Nexstar 8i, a scope not known for being a good choice for astrophotography. The biggest suggestion I would have would be to make...

Please cast your vote for the February 2009 Challenge, NGC2024, the Flame Nebula (or any part thereof, or within any context of surrounding DSO's). Images can...
Hey Kel Thank you for the response. Using the ETX-70 was just a whim. I was not expecting much from it and I, guess, was not disappointed even though I was...
Hi All; Well, I finally got an image together, NGC 2174 in narrowband. A lesser imaged reflection/emission nebula in Orion. Although it contains over 7 hours...
I have just downloaded the latest version of Envisage (7.05) and can't seem to get a response form my DSI I Colour camera. Is it supported in the latest...
Great image Chuck! I've never tried this one, or rather, I remember starting into it once and getting 2 subs of Ha before clouds hit. You did well in the...
Hi Michael, If you had a previous version of Envisage / Autostarsuite installed prior to 7.05 that did work with your DSI, it may be possible that the new...
... Hi Kel; Thanks for looking. In the winter I do not need either. At 0 to 5 degrees F the only thing I need is a shot or two of Scotch. ;-) Chuck D....
I'm with Kel. I like the Tricolor version better. The stars' magenta halo's are a little strong, but that's not easy to deal with. If I knew how to do it, I'd...
Hi all, Just thought I'd share this with you. I've been working on a rather poor set of data I collected a couple weeks ago. When I posted something on another...
Ok, I went back to work and fixed the magenta halos around the stars on my tricolor image. Also, i had some saturation problems at the edges of my bicolor...
