DMK imaging advice anyone?

[ollypenrice]

Hi all,

Looks like I may have a DMK21 mono on the way. I aim to use it in the 10 inch SCT on the planets and as a starter in the Lunt 60 when it arrives. Can anyone point me to a reliable source of 'how to' that starts at the beginning? It is ages since I did anything like this with a Celestron Toucam and an early Registax and all that frame rate and gain stuff has gone from my little head.

Thanks,

Olly

Cheers, Riklaunim. I'll have a look.

Pretty straight forward....

Use the Y800 codex

For my solar imaging I try to get between 1000 and 1500 frames.

On the DS SM60 I need 1/11sec for proms and 1/120sec for surface.

Gain - 640

Gama - 18
