Sensor analysis QHY268m with gain 55-60

#1

Post by Empire4191 »

Hi there,
I want to find the exact sweet spot on my camera. According to QHY, this should be at gain 58 or 59.
When I do the sensor analysis, gain 10, 20, ... 50, 60, 70, ... is done.
Is there a way to do this with gain 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60?

Thanks and best regards
Daniel

Hi,

only by using the Python scripting built into SharpCap, and even then the use of added points is currently broken for QHY cameras (but I have a fix and intend to upload a fixed version of SharpCap later today). See this thread : viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4685

cheers,

Robin

Hi Robin,

thank you.
I did it.
The sweet spot is then probably at gain 56 and not at gain 60.
Therefore, I will now make my recordings with Gain 56.

Regards,
Daniel
