Sensor Analysis on QHY163M

Tested on v4.0 and v3.2, mono8 and mono16, same errors.

Hi,

from the screenshot it looks like you have a perfectly white image (maximum brightness) captured at 0.001ms exposure, minimum gain. That's not how the camera is supposed to work, and it is certainly confusing the sensor analysis.

Can you reproduce that error by manually adjusting the controls? If so, is there an exposure value below which everything goes white, and above which things are normal? If I knew that I might be able to tweak the code to avoid the settings where the camera does silly things.

cheers,

Robin

Below 0.360ms going white

0.360ms


0.359ms

Hi,

brilliant, thank you. I will make a change so that 0.36ms will be the minimum exposure offered in the next update, which should work around the issue.

cheers,
