So, l
et’s get started:
➢
Set your exposure to a small value, say
10ms
as a starting point (we are
using a small time, but the actual exposure amount depends upon the
f/ratio, size of telescope, filters, seeing conditions, ...). You can adjust the
exposure using one of the three methods below:
o
You can either use the
mouse button
and
Left-Click-Hold and
Drag
the
Slider Marker
(This method is best for making large movements).
o
You can also
Click
on the
Slider Marker
, then use the
Left
and
Right
arrows keys on your keyboard to precisely move the
Exposure
Marker
(this method provides the most accurate tiny adjustments
to the exposure times).
o
You can
Click
on the
Exposure Time’s
current setting and a pop-up
window will appear that allows you to enter the required exposure
time in milliseconds (This allows you to be very precise in the
exposure time you require,
5000 ms = 5 seconds
).
You should be able to see the Planetary object of interest on your screen.
So now adjust the
Exposure Time
to make the object bright enough
match your viewing requirements. You can also adjust the
Gain
to the
Right
to brighten your image.
Now is the time to adjust the
White Balance
and
Color Adjustment
(Contrast,
Gamma, …) to your required preferences.
