Hi Lester

The PHD website at Starklabs indicates that PHDGuiding works with The Imaging Source (Windows and OS X) Cameras?

Is the issue then whether it works only with the USB model, and not the Firewire variant?

Cheers

Dennis

Dennis,
Thanks for that. That's interesting as I think the Mac OS X uses the firewire connection...
Let you know how I go...

Don't know where you got the original info, but I can say that the DMK21 firewire works 100% with PHD V1.10.0
In the list of cameras there's the choice " Imaging Source DCAM firewire" just select and off you go!!!
Hope this helps.

Thanks Merlin. I will not be trying this for some time till I get the Titan worked out and sat on the pier.

Are there different versions of PHD, that some may not be compatable with firewire?

I'm quite sure there are people using their DMK firewire with PHD successfully.

I'm even 95% sure I was guiding with my DMK firewire before I got my USB version.

I'll do some digging.

Thanks Mike.

Matthew Lovell informed me also that the firewire is compatable with PHD.
