Mosaic Mode

mconsidine Where is this screenshot from? Beta? Other Application/Vendor?

xfirf

mconsidine or @support Any chance we can have more details on this "screenshot" please?

xfirf this is a pre-release, pre-beta, alpha version screenshot. I can assure you it is not in beta yet. ZWO should be monitoring this a little more closely and removing that, but I suppose they just want to build anticipation for this often, many times promised, feature that in my opinion is nowhere near ready for release

marvindj

From what I read, Dwarf 3's mosaic mode isn't ready either. Probably will ship/has shipped without it (initially)....

Must be a complicated feature to implement....

The Dwarf 3 already has mosaic mode they call it Astro-Mosaic, it was released with this option along with others that this forum has been asking for😏

Seestar_S50 That already has such a wide field where would you use Mosaic?

The public beta is now available for download since this noon. :-D Works quiet good.
some things I like to know:

is there a "resume last mosaic-session" feature planned?
Can we get a timer / statusbar showing how long it will take till the selected mosaic is completed?
Is it possible to record a mosaic for "unlimited time" like it works with a regular shot?

url to public beta: https://www.pgyer.com/inner_public

xfirf Well, based on the URL here's the translation of content:

Firmware 3.11 New - Added mosaic feature - Added guest mode - Added message push - Added support for planet tracking - Added auto-boost switch after GOTO optimize - Optimized targeting - Optimized interface interaction and copywriting - Fix known bugs

Having said that, I'd not touch this until ZWO support commented that this is a valid website. Plus, I'm iOS so not available..

The link is now closed, the beta version has been removed.

Hey @support is there a chance you will add "resume last mosaic-session" to the upcoming mosaic-feature? Would be very handy when taking pictures on more than one night.

Does anyone have a testflight/iOS url for the beta?

clipper99

marvindj You can download it now on TestFlight!

pupak What year would that be? It isn't going to be this year.

bkushner Are you for real? M31, Veil Nebula, Fighting Dragons of Ara, Southern Cross, Coal Sack, M20 and M8 complex, Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex. That's without even thinking. Heck even the M16 Nebula is slightly too large given field rotation.

@Seestar_S50 It would be great if the toggle for activating mosaic-mode would be on the StarAtlas-Page instead of the Stargazing-Page. It is somehow counter-intuitive to go to another page to activate the feature and then got back to use it.

Obes All these fit in the field of my Dwarf 2

merak You are right. Anyone who can compare first steps with simple visual scopes, then GoTo solution, and what we can reach now thanks to Seestar, greatly appreciates this smart scope.
We know that "proffesional" astrophoto offers much more, however it is unbelivable that with very reasonable money S50 can reach and we can see so many wonderful DSO objects.

Hi zwo, is their any insight on how close the mosaic mode is getting for public release?

My cousin's, neighbor's, sister's old room mate was able to dl the 2.1.0 for Android but can't figure out how to enable mosaic mode. Any help would be appreciated by my cousin's, neighbor's, sister's old room mate.

Night Sky You turn it on in the top right corner in viewing mode, then you pick a new object and then you press framing.
