Mostly at home have taken it to stargazing parties before. As others said for going for a one nighter it is a bit on the heavy side

Update last night when it cleared up I went out side & connected my laptop fired everything up & connected nina to the equipment did a 10sec exposure good focus was on my imaging screen so I did autofocus run through all the filters. most filters had around 0.8 - 1.00 hfr with some down to 0.72

That could be the problem. I was thinking of going over to zwo cameras when money allows

Just to update I took the S.X. H674 camera off and put my spare camera (atik titan) on turned the looping of. This time I got an image on the screen.(looks like it could be the h674 camera at fault}.

yes I have power to the cam ( software can't connect if no power to camera).

It's turned on so is the star detection next to it

next time I get chance to to connect to the equipment I'll give the loop selected

I get a msg on nina saying camera connected and when I go to the camera tab the camera profile (chip size/ pixel size) are shown. As I found out with apt if no power to cam the software cannot connect.

I'm looking at 2 different imaging software (APT & N.I.N.A), On both you have the option to set the filter offset (focus). I'm using the beader 1.25" filters on my set up. Does anyone use these know how par focal they are and how much offset is needed on each filter?

Thanks for the heads up

Thanks Alexander, I use stellarium for imaging as I can use for field of view calculator for my equipment.
