Slow motion

Post by melvin »

Hi, the camera I was using was a ZWOASI 120 mm and the Telescope was an Explore Scientific ed80apo, I was checking which spacers in May need but when I changed focus, in or out, and also the exposure, everything took a few seconds to respond. It was as if there is a time delay. Very strange so can anyone advise me please.

Hi,

What sort of exposure where you using? Was it in the range of a few seconds, tens of seconds or more, or a fraction of a second? I have noticed on some cameras the image seems to run a few frames behind 'live', which sounds quite like what you are experiencing.

Cheers, Robin

Hi Robin, my setting was bulb. I uninstalled the version I had and reinstalled the software again. I have a new laptop so maybe there was a fault with the installation. I will try again this afternoon.
