      Cheers I'll give it a read while I'm on the train.

  2. this is what comes in the box, 1.25 nose piece adapter, usb dongle with all the software but may need to go to website for latest updates, usb cable, which is to short.
  3. Rik, I'm the same, when the first software came out you could access the different modes all in one window, now say I want to change from planetary to deep sky I have to close the app and it goes back to the first window with the 4 boxes, I find this a bit frustrating and slow. What they have changed and I've yet to try it is that in DEEP SKY now you can change from sec's to ms so in theory I should be able to use DS window for planetary without changing back to the planetary window. You can save and load different settings without coming out of the program
  4. the image with the yellow bar showing 1 is in stacking mode... just as a example, exposure is 3 sec's and it just started to stack 1 of 3
  5. hi, the NBB-Cx is the same as mine but with the cooler already fitted. yes it comes with a 1.25 nose piece and I would imagine you could get a 2'' nose piece. I've never guided as I only use a Alt-Az mount as my main interest is video at short exposure times. I've just taken some screen shots off the laptop of the different apps within the software just to give you a idea what's it like. You cant open the software unless it detects a I-nova camera. this shot is what it looks like when you first open it up, you just click on which square you are going to use, i.e click on the planetary if that's what your going to do and so on
  6. Hi mate. I've got the PLB-Cx version, without the peltier, but can be added as a kit at a later date. its a nice little camera using the same sensor as a ASI120MC Color USB2.0 Camera.1280 x 960 and you would get similar results. you can buy them with or without the peltier cooler which can be controlled through the software Being a new camera the software for them is being updated weekly, the software is getting better with new features and bugs ironed out, matter of fact a new beta as been released today. Yes it can stack on the fly, darks, focus and guiding, exposure infinity but you expect a lots of hot pixels which is the norm with type of sensor and with the peltier it will reduce it a lot. I've not had chance to give it a work out yet on DSO's . this will give you a idea of the size of it with a usb dongle propped up against it.
