Hi all any comments on the above please ,my present scope is a ts optics 580mm with 0.7 reducer giving approx 406mm .Now ive just realised that i need the bigger focal length for my remaining dso targets,but never really used my c8 ,whats your thoughts please,or is there something more suited cheers iwols ps always said once i get original set up spot on i would never alter it ,ive permanent mount by the way

just capturing this myself on my last 2 sessions just dont know when enoughs enough timewise though

Hi jonk sorry for the late reply I used allskeye great piece of software

well first night time shot and well pleased actually captured mono instead of colour,just need to pop the stars a bit more skycam.mp4

hi just wondered what filters you suggest for the above ,have R,G,B Ha available thanks

its a 178mc with this lens https://www.allskyoptics.com/store/product/arecont-vision-12-155mm-f2-cs-allsky-lens-1 superb guys to deal with

well first try during the day and very pleased with the results ,noticed a bit of reflection when the sun came over but obviously not a problem at night thanks ,a big thanks to jonk for getting me this far day test.mp4

thanks jonk never realised the upload file was 1gb now ,sure it used to be a lot less thanks

how big was the file jonk? cheers

hi jonk how did you import this clip size wise cjheers iwols

regarding the pi i have one setup ruinning an alarm and rain sensor at the minute that my son programmed which i dont really want to disturb,but maybe run another pi eventually if i can work out how to do it,im a none starter with pi,how large is your pi drive and how much imaging can you store cheers

well downloaded and tried with my temp setup and wow this software does the job superbly def upgrade to the pro version thanks again

tha thanks jonk that reply is better than i could have asked as i have a pi in my obsy with a lan connection,which i would love to use,so you use the 178mc with the pi then and not the dedicated pi cam,does this software do all 3 of the above and does it connect to your pc,got giddy now ,any examples or further advice/suggestions on your set up would be great thanks

Hi all just putting together an all sky camera with a asi178mc camera but just wondered what software you used to capture/replay the images,sharpcap any good or is there something better cheers

Just wondered if anyone could suggest a reasonably priced all sky camera or a ccd good enough to use in a home made all sky camera or any thing along these lines without breaking the banks cheers and has anyone used these https://www.allskyoptics.com/store/product/allsky-camera-casing-full-build

great results makes me want to go back to osc instead of filters👍
