Ahh being able to use sharpcap will be great seeing as thats the program im used to using... cheers Alun

Things I have learnt using an SPC900 lx modded.

Hope this helps..

Cheers m8 the com port was the sort of thing i was dreading, so that may help alot...

What about the amp off thing hows that work in the progam?

Also has anyone used sharpcap with the lx modded SPC does it work ok?

i take it the screen is blank while the progam is taking the exposure?

Iv been into imaging planets and moon for the last few months with my webcam with pleasing results, now iv taken the next step and got a lx moded SPC900 on its way to me..

What im hoping for is a link to a website or a thread on here that explains how to connect and how to use the cam to expose a shot..

The SPC is serial port although iv ordered a usb converter so it will be usb by the time i get to use it, it also has the amp off mod done..

I dont intend to spend hours outside i just want to do some simple exposures like 5-6x 20secs or 2x 1min for instance.

Iv been using sharpcap software so far will i be able to carrie on with that?...
