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.




Maxim is so lagged its painful. The interface pauses and jerks while the camera is downloading making frame and focusing a pain. CCDSoft does not do this. Also CCDSoft is a much "lighter" application. I don't need any of the processing features in MaxIm and wish I could just buy the acquisition portion of the program to use with ACP. Unfortunately, that isn't possible.

MaxIm's GUI is better, when its not pausing, lagging, or jerky, and I'm not using a slow computer either. I've seen this on every computer I've used Maxim on.
