Hello again,
I'm getting some mixed messages as to what kind of assistance I'm asking for.
All I need to know is what would be considered an acceptable lux rating for a camera to be used as a guidecam.
I've tested some software. Guide dog in particular, and it seems like it will do the trick. Primarily because it has the ability to control my Celestron 4se through the serial port. It will detect any camera you plug into a PC that will show up as a WDM device. I plan mounting a Canon 550D DSLR on the Celestron 4se and perform some Astrophotography. I'm also planning on getting a Skywatcher EQ6 Equatorial mount so I can get my Saxon 8" Mak up and running also. I would like to setup guiding on that eventually also.
But for now, all I need to know is what is an acceptable Lux sensitivity rating for a CCD camera so it can be used for guiding. Any help on this issue would be accepted gratefully.
Thank You.
