Is acquisition data saved somewhere for FITS images?
Is there a way to look up what exposure/gain settings and what filter was used for a FITS image I shot a week ago? Is there a way to include that info in the image title or something?

Hi,
there should be a '.camerasettings.txt' file in the same folder as the saved FITS image containing all the settings (unless you have disabled this - see https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/3.2/#Save%2 ... %20capture). The basic settings like exposure and gain should be in the FITS headers and can be viewed with FITSLiberator.
cheers,
Robin
