M27 on a OSC but no Colour ????

[spiezzy]

hi to all
Last night I was giving my new OTA 10" truss Newt astro graph a go and just wanted to see how everything was going and was imaging M27 I did 15x 300sec subs with my Sbig STF8300C (colour camera ) and just was doing a basic processing in Nebulosity 4 and when I did a demosaic Raw Colour I noticed there was no colour in the image but you can see the coloured hot pixels .
there are no calibration frames as this was just a quick look see I did use a Pro Star LP filter for the first time due to the moon I wonder if this has something to do with it as I have done nothing different than before except the filter and no cal frames any comments would be greatly appreciated
cheers Pete

Ps I forgot to mention I used 2 x 2 binning

Have you checked the correct debayering pattern?

Someone can correct me if I am wrong but I believe that if you bin a OSC you lose colour.

Hi Bo Thanks for the reply in Nebulosity 4 the Debayer Method is set to colour Binning what would be a better meted to select do you think there are Bilinear,VNG,PPG and AHD
cheers Pete :thanx:

Hi there Colin
Yes I have just read about this But I didn't thing you would loose all colour
It was the first time I used binning as well as the filter
cheers Pete

As Colin says, the 2x2 pixels match the Bayer pattern and therefore you end up with just Luminance, i.e. monochrome.

thanks Dunk for that and Colin so binning is out for OSC cameras I knew it would be one of the 2 new things I tried .
cheers Pete :thanx:
