I firstly just connected it and didn't attach it to anything thinking I was some kind of webcam. I have now used my f/5 newtonian and have managed to get an image through the window. (Pouring with rain in Scotland). So thank you for your help

Just receoved my Svbony SV305 and I am trying to capture in SharpCap in the daytime. No matter which setting I use I can't get any sort of image. Different shades of colour only on screen. If I put my hand in front of camera or put on lens cover the capture in Sharpcap goes dim/black. These are my settings [SVBONY SV305] Output Format=AVI files (*.avi) Colour Space=RGB24 Capture Area=1920x1080 Pan=0 Tilt=0 Black Level=0 USB Speed=1 Frame Rate Limit=Maximum Gain=1 Exposure=0.005424(Auto) Timestamp Frames=Off White Bal (B)=119 White Bal (G)=119 White Bal (R)=119 Sharpness=0 Saturation=148 Gamma=0.48 Contrast=11 Banding Threshold=35 Banding Suppression=0 Apply Flat=None Subtract Dark=None #Black Point Display Black Point=0 #MidTone Point Display MidTone Point=0.93734236777715 #White Point Display White Point=1 Notes= TimeStamp=2020-08-05T15:05:57.8568318Z SharpCapVersion=3.2.6396.0 Thanks for any help

Have you done your 2 star alignment? If you haven't I don't think the mount will be able to track properly as it won't know where in the sky it is pointing
