I'm using ekos (KSTars is version 3.4.3) on astroberry.
My camera is a canon 500D.
It's the second time I'm using ekos to capture. First time I did not have any problem.
The second time, I've setup a capture of 20 exposures of 1 minute.
Every uneven capture is an exposure of 1 second (I checked that with nomacs), though ekos says it's capturing for 60 seconds. All even exposures are ok.
I don't have a clue what is going on.
What am I doing wrong?
Any help appreciated.
Any mirror lock settings enabled in the driver or camera? That could be possibly one reason. Camera needs to be in BULB MANUAL mode. Set FORCE BULB to ON in Options as well to see if it helps.
Hello,
I finally had the chance to check this out, and indeed setting bulb mode on the camera and "force bulb" now takes all exposures with the exposure time requested; but now I'm having issues when trying to take sub-second exposures (like for the flats), if I set the exposure to 0.04 then it takes 1 seconds exposures. I'm puzzled.
