DSI III - First Light Image of M42
Hi all
I finally went out a bought a DSI III (one shot colour - I'll keep the pro II for LRGB work). I went out last night and got a single 4 min image of M42 (the old standby for comparison purposes) and a few 15s ones before the blinking clouds rolled in!
I did a simple composite of the two, some curves and levels, a little noise reduction but left the colours alone.
I'm encouraged so far with what I've seen, (theres still some noise in the image but it was only one exposure) and the new Envisage SW only bombed twice. The images are WAY bigger than the Pro II format (nearly 6mb each) and you do need a pretty quick PC with USB 2.0 to be usable.
Let me know what you think (the polar alignment was rough so the stars are a bit eggy).
