Sensor analysis failing
Posted: Thu Nov 26, 2020 3:32 pm
Hi,
I've tried to get this to work a few times on my EOS1000D running the open ASCOM drivers.
I'm having the same issues described here: viewtopic.php?t=2997 - either it fails because the image is too dark (towards the beginning of the analysis) or it's too light (about 30 minutes in).
I've tried creating the right conditions for the histogram to be around 65% with 1.5-3 seconds' exposure (I think it said), also played around with my light panel at three different brightness settings, with and without varying amounts of paper sandwiched between, as well as doing it during daylight.
Completely understand that this is an old, legacy camera and we're talking about generic drivers here, so if that's the issue, it's not a problem. But if there's anything I could do to make this work - or indeed anything I can do to help make it work - that would be great.
Thanks
Brendan
