Richard, just to clarify, the NINA mount link is working and moves the mount to targets, etc? That's not the issue?

Nothing beats an astro image to test a camera. I do as you have and look at terrestrial when setting up an astrocam, but they are not what you'd expect.
That's probably why the Canon did better- it's designed for it.

The VBONY is only a small sensor. The pixel size is good, but it isn't intended for wide fields- it is listed as "you can use it for planetary imaging; lunar and solar imaging and some bright deep space objects imaging"

So, not many pixels devoted to each 'thing' in your image, maybe the sources of you graininess. Think of your terrestrial scene as a really bright deep sky nebula...


The features of NINA are many and complex. I'd recommend a lot of time going through the You Tube stuff about it- particularly these sites:
Cuiv, the Lazy Geek
Patriot Astro
Everyday Astro

It's a big job getting NINA going, but well worth it. I'm still getting there.
