Well, just finished a run this morning, now 6.25 am, seeing was ok, thought it might be better given the low temp over night and the storm that passed our way in last two days.

Anyway tried shooting with the toucam. Two things have cropped up. First is the grain of the image, I have the gain set to almost zero and it is still grainy. What do I do about that?

Second is the colour, I did not use the IR filter and most of the images were a reddy colour. I set white balance to auto just before I commenced imaging. How do I get the image to be the neutral colour, or how If using the IR filter do I get the image from the blue colour to the correct colours? Mike, I guess you might have recent experience with this, and you seem to have got the hang of the colour and grain. Some tips please?

Aside from that it went quite well except for focus, did not get around to masking up the hartman mask, and this morning I needed the dew shield on (time for a kendrick heater I think) so I had to wing focus. So this is where I am.
