Hypercam 183C Starting Point Settings HERE
Posted: Thu Apr 05, 2018 1:35 am
Hi All,
I bought the Hypercam 183C and searched all over for some guide on where to start for Sharpcap settings wise for DSO's.
These are based on an f/5.9 scope so may need a little adjustment for slower/faster optics.
Set to FITS with 12/16Bit Colour Space!
To save future peeps the same issue:
Frame/Focus
Exposure 4secs
Gain 2000
Bin 2x2
USB Speed 1
Imaging
Exposure 120Secs
Gain 400
Bin 2x2
USB Speed 1
Lunar
Exposure 1/500th
Gain 100
Bin - Unimportant
USB Speed as fast as you system can handle.
