How does the software use the CCD temperature with dark frame subtraction? Jim tried it first. The color rendition in the images was terrible.

I then use MicroSoft's Magnifier program to blow up the image really big on the screen. When I got my observatory fully operational early in summerI shot the four images that follow. However, the chips in each camera are spaced dssi same distance from the nosepiece and hence, the size of the individual object on the screen should remain close to the same.

I can honestly say that it was a bear to install and a pain in the butt to operate. To view this digimag, Adobe Flash player is required. You can opt-out at any time. Through other software such dai PhotoShop, you can manually overlay the images though the sizes of these will still be different. In summer, Meade's software does a good job dark-subtracting second exposures and less well with second exposures.

Cookies perform functions like recognising you each time you meaee and delivering advertising messages that are relevant to you. How does the CCD Temperature indicator work? But once in a while everything worked, and images actually popped up on the computer screen.
