[SOLVED] ALL DSLRs cannot use focus functionality

matigiana

Hello guys,

first of all let me thank you once again for ASIAIR and its great features that ease astrophotography.

Focus function is just awesome and critical or a successful night with the digital aid of HFD values.

It seems that focus is not working with any of the DSLRs (even supported). i 've tested almost all fw versions and the latest beta.

You can see my post here https://www.facebook.com/groups/ASIAIR/1692979684198581

i 've asked all our friends to test with their camers. I 've already tested with Canon 500D and Nikon D750. When you will go in a dark room you just see only noise.

There is also a feedback by a more ASIAIR test (Dave Imm) , you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ASIAIR/1676812619148621

The problem is the exposure would appear to be stuck at 0.1/0.05 seconds so too fast to record anything in a dark sky other than sensor noise. Please watch my videos in Messenger. The problem seems applicable only to DSLR's it works fine with ASI cams.

He obvisouly contacted you (ZWO Astronomy Cameras ) over FB Messenger

I would kindly request for you help to resolve the issue. Please have a look and let me know if you need any further info.

Kind Regards,

Hello

Not sure if you have resolved this issue,I was also just getting what looked like noise when trying to focus but found if I just hit the reset with the histogram it solved this problem hope this helps. The ASIAIR PRO is a wonderful product thank you.
