Hi Michael,
I just had a look at the 1000D and its definitely set for sRGB.....
Everything else looks normal, no ICNR, no long exposure noise reduction, shoot in RAW + L Jpg (large)....
Hmmm, dont think its the camera, although the data isnt all that good, surely 5 mins at ISO 400 should give me a nice bright? image of say M20????
Its easy to get some clean data on M42, but if I am going to struggle with this unmodded DSLR on anything other than globs or open clusters, then perhaps my camera of choice at the moment - a QHY8L or an Orion SSDSII Pro, then???
Just need the funds if I am heading down this path.....I just missed out on a QHY8 OSC the other day for a bargain $1K......grrrrrr
I would love to try out a QHY8 to see how much of an improvement there is......anyone.....???? Any shops care to let me do a review for them???? [crickets]....?
Chris
