Datyson camera

I also invested in one of these (on sale $29... hehehe). Quickly found it doesn't work . Spent many hours researching and communicating with the manufacturer. While it is advertised by many portals as a capable Astro-video camera, it is only good for the moon (with a filter) and some bright wide angle views in fast scopes. The manufacturer made the interface fool proof by locking down exposure and frame rates . Its a great terrestrial camera on a small refractor, and I did managed a capture of Orion, but only get the most dominant stars. It now sits in its box, waiting for me to work out my weather station and take its primary role as a sky camera .
