Re: Guiding with the SBIG

You probably don't want to hear this, but IMHO using Maxim makes things so much easier than dealing with CCDSOFT.




Thanks but I haven't figured it out yet! I have Maxim 5 and just can't get a good workflow going. I do like processing files with it though; makes things simpler.

But imaging & guiding is a whole new ballgame to learn and I am not there yet. I do wish to learn that process in Maxim 5 though, this Lunar Cycle. In fact I am going to set up at my home this afternoon and Lord willing won't get clouded out tonight.

It's gonna be another (at least) month before San Diego is clear all night even though the weather is indeed warming up. It's typically clouded over by 11P and when it don't get dark until 9 that's a problem!
