APT - battery indicator

[tingting44]

hi guys, id like to know if anyone knows if there is a DSLR battery indicator for APT to show how much battery the DSLR has left? i cant seem to find it but it must show it right?

It has this in the features list

" Notifications for low PC/Camera battery, low Camera space. "

yes i see that, just wondered if there were any visual percent or something to view also

would one of these be the battery indicator for the DSLR? its my 1st proper time using it tonight

It should be in the top left info area. Here's a pic of that corner:

In this pic it's the second lightning bolt down next to the camera icon. It reads 51%.

Hope that helps.

yes i should be finished capturing the lights before then tho, as i dont think ill get the full 100 before M13 goes past my house, but ill take what i can for now lol, 1st imaging ive done in weeks, and im only imaging as i nearly cut my finger off at work this morning, so making the most of my night off work tonight

1st time also using my coma corrector and baeder LP filter and the subs look way better then before

Ouch, that doesn't sound too good about the finger, but great to be out harvesting the light. The moon is getting pretty bright now though.

M13 is a glorious target, I love the globulars! Look forward to seeing the resulting image posted soon.

I'm busy collecting long Ha subs of the North America Nebula...
