More CCD probs...

[codemonkey]

So I finally got my 314e back, after Atik fixed a wiring issue which was apparently causing my previous issues. Now I'm getting a consistent glow in the top of the frame, which becomes more pronounced as I stretch (see attached 300 sec stretched darkframe).

This may be a stupid question, but this isn't normal, is it? I'm thinking at this point I might just ask for a refund.

Yep, that looks wrong.

Was that taken without being attached to a scope? Just the camera with body cap?

Thanks mate.

Yep, it was 300sec with the body cap on the camera. I took it because I'd noticed a glow when stretching my first attempt at using the CCD on the telescope and wanted to confirm it was the camera and not something else.

Better get back in touch with support! :(

Thanks mate :-)

Contacted the retailer asking for a refund, who's now passed it on to Atik before agreeing.
