Re: ASI 290 mini mono and SC problems
Robin
Other way around ...so the results bothered me too
I may not have done the “test” correctly though
Don’t fret about this ...I will work on 2s exposures and high gain to start with and see where the this goes
Thx

Re: ASI 290 mini mono and SC problems
Robin
If I follow you on sensitivity and am doing this properly the 290 needed exposure is 9.9ms and the 224 is 2.0ms .This gets the histogram for both to 50%
I will need your coaching to tell me how these two exposure settings tell me what to do with other SharpCap settings
Thx

I will try a reset and max gain...never tried that as I was told and saw so many cloudy nights posting using 350 gain. 8s exposure and 350 gain produced acceptable image the other ...

read the 3.2 manual and see how to capture darks. It says SC can subtract darks for direct show cameras within live stack. I have one. Does this happen automatically or if not.............. what is the process i follow.
thx Bruce Heath
The manual doesn't say

Re: SharpCap 3.2 Now Available
robin
while waiting for an answer
i cycled through all my versions--2.9 to 3.2 and did dark captures with each
when i got to 3.2 this time it worked
i did it again and it worked again
not sure why it didn't first time....but it failed twice
good to go!
all the best
