Recommend settings for imaging Jupiter with ASI224MC

robby9newbie

Wondering what would be the best settings for imaging Jupiter using the above camera on an 8 inch LX200 SCT. I am using SharpCap but I have yet to get the settings right to come up with a decent image. There seems to be a lot of settings that can be changed and I do not what they should be

Thanks from Canada

What would be the red and blue balance settings?

You can try Wred/Wblue 52/95 for color recordings, but you may also play with it during capture. Further corrections may also be done during post-processing

Gain=350 and play with the exposure

Try to keep histogram in about 75% (R, G and B).

For Jupiter, limit your capture interval in maximum 120 seconds per video file.
