Where is the DSLR application in Astroberry?

[ofranzen]

Hi all,

Feeling a bit stupid now but what application do I use to control my DSLR in Astroberry? Specifically a Canon 1200D. "gphoto2 --auto-detect" finds the camera but how do I take preview photos for framing and then automate the photo session?

Or is DSLR imaging solely for the Windows domain?

Cheers

It should work through KStars/Ekos (which uses INDI)

Dont have a Dslr but procedure should be roughly: start kstars, go to ekos, setup your profile, and choose the correct driver for your camera there.

ekos then deals with operating everything, including the Dslr in th eCamera tab

(that’s a very rough/quick guide)

Here’s a tutorial from the kstars developer on using a Canon..

Thanks a million. It keeps crashing but at least I know where to look now.
