Amp Glow ZWO 183MC Pro

[mgirdwood]

Hi

Trying first light with a new ZWO 138MC Pro, testing darks i created a Master from around 10 taken at 120Sec -20 degree 

i expected some amp glow from reading other posts and reviews but can someone give me an indication if this as expected or ?   seems greater that i anticipated

 

thanks

Does look a bit excessive but I guess it depends on processing ? What does a single sub look like ?

There is a very long / informative thread about this on cloudy nights , might be worth a read.

Good news is that the camera can create excellent images as the glow normally calibrates out .

thanks for looking - i will see if i can find the post on Cloudy nights

processing - was simply Screen transfer in PI nothing further  here is a single Dark sub

It's a long thread, but mostly positive 🙂 mono version of your cam, but same results

The glow calibrarates out completely by using darks, just tried it on my new 183MM this morning. Just make sure that you disable any dark optimization in your stacking program.

hi

just going to run a new integration and will try to remember not to tick Master Dark optimisation,   

again just to try to understand what i am looking at  - here is a master dark i ran today.  any ideas anyone on why there are circles everywhere  - just doesn't seem to be correct  Or ?

Camera is 2 days old so if there is an issue it would be good to know
