Hi Fred, Yes it can be installed on the Color model. I already installed it on my MC II COLOR and it did help. I also installed it on my MC PRO. I found it...
Hello Rock, I wonder what maximum integration (SENSE up) could be reached for the Mallincam Pro. At this moment it is 128x (~ 2sec). To what integration time...
Hi Henk, The reason it can't be done is because we need 32 megs memory chips instead of the 16 megs chips. We need the extra memory room to accumulate beyond...
Hello: well I posted 2 new photos of M57. I guess I,m using M57 as a learning tool. Monday and Thursday nights are both 30 frames stacked but didn,t use...
Fred, Congratulation. I consider your new images a success !!! Both Monday and Thursday nights are excellent. I like the Monday one as it shows nice colors...
Hi Rock, OK understood, but if you would have sufficient memory on the chips, what would then be the technical (theoretical) limit of increasing exposure time...
Hi Henk, Increasing the memory size would permit a whole lot more option from the main CPU to do tasks as it was the case for our PRO model. Images wise, it...
Hi, Last night I manage to see NGC 404 ( the Ghost of Mirach )with a 4" Televue refractor and Mallincam Pro in my light polluted backyard in the Toronto suburb...

-- Hi, Rock, Thanks for the encouragement. I finally found a video capture card (WinFast TV2000 XP, Can $88.00) that seems to work quite well. I posted a raw...
Wingko, Nice image!! I like your image taken with the 4", its awesome! Is this a single frame only?? Your telescope has seen deep sky object no other 4" could...
