ZWO ASI071 problems
Posted: Wed Mar 01, 2017 12:54 pm
Hi,
I tested the 2.10.3600 release with my ZWO color camera ASI071. I found two possible problems.
1) When I take a colour image, the display shows the expected picture: BUT if I flip the image something wrong happens (I suppose it is related to the Debayer preview function). Hereafter you can see a sample of what is shown by the PC screen: 2) If I try to save the image, I get a colour image only when my colour space is set as RBG24. If I choose RAW16 (without flipping the image), I see the correct colour image on the PC screen, but if I save a snapshot I get a B/W image with clear distorsions. A sample of the saved fits image is enclosed here: Note that if the image is stacked no problems are observed when files are saved.
