Have your telescope pointed to the Planetary Object of interest, and it is
recommended that you use a
Barlow Lens
attached to your Telescope to
provide a “Larger (Longer Focal Length)” image.
Since you will want to “
push
” the capabilities of the SkyRaider in displaying the
Planetary object, you will require the
highest resolution
that your particular
SkyRaider can produce, along with the largest
bits
of data
(for color or shades of
Back and White) for each pixel that the SkyRaider is able to produce. This will
provide enough data for external stacking programs to pull out the finest detail
from your video images.
From the
Capture and Resolution Tab
on the
MallincamSky ToolBar
, select the
Largest
resolution values that your SkyRaider is capable of.
The SkyRaiderDS10 is capable of 4 resolutions: 3704 x 2778, 4096 x 2160, 2048 x
1080, and 1360 x 720.
If you are going to be saving and processing images taken with the SkyRaider,
you may want to increase the Bit depth to the highest value your particular
SkyRaider camera supports.
Since you have chosen a
High Resolution
and a
Large Bit Count
, this will slow
down the
Frames per Second
rate at which the MallincamSky can process the
images (huge amounts of data moving through the system). We will make an
adjustment in a later step that will increase the
Frames per Second
rate.
