ALTAIR GPCAM3 178M - FPS improvement

[pierrech2022]

Hello,

With the last update of Sharpcap (4.1.12395.0 64 bits), i'am very happy to see the FPS of the camera growing from 150 fps max to 300 fps max .

It's a very interesting feature . I saw on the update description, "Update Altair SDK to support new models".

Is it the reason why I see this major improvement ?

Thank you for Sharpcap !

Hi Pierre,

I wasn't expecting that sort of effect from the new Altair SDK, but maybe there was something that was previously restricting the maximum speed and now that is fixed? I don't have the Altair 178 model to test with, but I have another brand and my experience is that it will do about 50fps at full resolution in 8 bit mode, but much higher when using ROI mode as long as the exposure is short enough.

cheers,

Robin
