Thanks - fantastic software!

Hi, Beautiful color image of Sun in LiveView. If I save the image using any LiveView option (Start Capture, Quick Capture, Snapshot), the result is a highly pixilated monochrome image. However, if I use Save Image from Display Histogram Stretch (same settings), the result is a beautiful color image ...

Robin,

FYI Just tested Moonlite NiteCrawler rotator (3.5inch, current ascom driver)- seems to work fine....

Thanks - and great photos! My stack of Uranus (6x120 sec, phd2 guided) was taken Thursday 2/20/20, 4~4.5B sky, 2030m/6500' MSL. Clear sky, but I don't know seeing condition. No Barlow. I stacked with Sharpcap Pro, and hand-tweaked (within SC) the resultant stretched image. I will research point-sour...
