Very nice Ed, just a little overexposed. Try using a faster shutter especially on the bright areasaway from the terminator. Otherwise very nicely captured.

Eeek I'm not sure, i've never seen the software that you're using to capture. I'm assuming though that there's some settings to control the exposure?

Perhaps if the DSI works with k3ccdtools you can use that software to capture your avi's, that way you have full control over the settings being used.

Next time we meet up I'd like to have a look at the DSI (and its software) in action so I can help out more next time.

Orion,

If it's a DSI colour model (not the Pro model) it's the same soft used for the LPI. In the top left of the imaging window you can adjust the exposure time.
Generally you need to shoot well under 1 second exposures. The DSI can react differently using exposure times under one second. In the way it writes the image info to the screen/file. This is why most folks have both, DSI for dso's and LPI for luna and planets. Hence the name

regards
