Stofler & Faraday (new camera)

Posted By Wesley Higgins
Hi,

Judging from the avi I thought this image would have been a little better but for the first night out with the new Lumenera Infinity 1.4mp camera I'm satisfied with it.
The Infinity 2-1 has a max image size of 1392x1040 this image is about 800x600, this image is only 8bit although the camera can do 12bit but I am having some trouble getting 12bit output but I feel confident I can get that worked out.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Re: Two feeble fractured crater lunar images-LU075

Posted By Wesley Higgins
Hi Robert,

Very detailed images, I agree with Paolo that the Arzachel crater is too dark and Alphonsus a little bluish but there is definitely a lot of detail there, has Streampix fixed the bug when imaging in B&W with a color LUO75C.
I hope you continue to image the moon at least every now and then.

Thanks,
