[Alchemy (Clive)]

before i comment on anything else, ive done a daylight test, heres the result.
both shot through the same f11 cheap achro i have as a spotting scope.

pic one the darker one ... straight out of the qhy8 saved as a bitmap gain 50 offset 118, 20 millisecond exposure equivelent to a 1/50 th second


pic 2 shot from 350d camera at 1/250th sec iso 1600.

i reckon q8 shots probably a stop under so to match ....

q8 1/25th

cannon 1/250th

unless theres a serious issue of my incompetence as far as im concerned thats not a reasonable result.

it would suggest i have to do a 1 hr exposure to get the same response,

i thought having a high efficiency camera meant ...... oh go figure, someone else test theirs , tell me ive made a mistake.....



still gutted
