APT

[Ronclarke]

Hi, wonder if anybody who uses APT has any problems with the time it takes to download images from the camera to the laptop?

If I am taking 3 min subs it also takes 3 min to download onto APT! So a run of 10 x 3 min subs takes nearly an hour!!

It maybe a setting somewhere, my camera (1000d) or my laptop??

Any comments would be really helpful please?.

 

Thanks Ron

Are you sure you haven't got automatic noise reduction turned on in the camera menu ?

I'll check, thanks Dave ..

Definitely something not right there, I take a few seconds with a DSLR 24Mb subs and 10-15 seconds max with 31Mb subs from ZWO1600 CMOS camera. and that's with a USB2.0 port. Agree with Dave look at camera settings + try USB3.0 port if you have one.  Good luck.

Thanks both, I did have the Noise Reduction enabled. I've just disabled them and will do a test later.

(I have a bedroom to paint!!)

Thanks

That's a lot better, almost instant! 

Both 'Long Exposure and High ISO noise reductions now turned off..

Thanks
