hi  got a video camera of one of the other site members and have got it working with scope in daylight,  however at night all I seem to get is noise.

so wondering if anyone else uses this type camera and can share their settings with me please?

using Sharpcap

 

thanks in advance

Hi

I have the SDC435 - I suggest you set the exposure to manual, try and find the EX-UP setting, possibly in the exposure menu. This will be something like x2, x4, x64 x128. You are going to need long exposures to see anything.

Also look for the AGC setting - set this to High if possible.

If you have a manual for the camera, can you scan it as post it here or PM me and I'll take a look and see if I can help.
