Hi all,
I have for years resisted the urge to have an all sky camera, simply because the ones available were too expensive to justify buying one.
In the last couple of weeks I have been going through the process of making an allsky camera.
I bought a Raspberry Pi 4 and a ZWO ASI224MC. A day ago a friend of mine helped me with installing the code on to the Mini SD. The code and how to do an Allsky camera can be
found here.
The hardware you will need can be
found here.
Tonight I had first light of the camera. I have included a couple of images of both the finished camera and of the first light image.
All up it cost a bit over $500 but that is way less than a commercially made one.
