Keep in mind the shots of Jupiter and Saturn seen below were imaged with a reflector with a bird jones design which means there is a built in barlow in the focuser that causes some optical abberations. This design is well known to create some focus issues as you cannot a real sharp image and you also get some color abberations. This camera will do a better job with a MAK telescope for sure which does not have such limitations. I am still very happy with them. Hello, I tried my new astro camera SVBONY SV105 and till the clouds covered all sky, I had captured short video (only 100 frames) with the help of SharpCap v. 3.0. Then processed on Registax6. Q15:Is SV205 camera suitable for deep space photography? A15:The SV205 camera has only one second exposure time, which is not suitable for deep space photography. For a long time, the cheapest option to do planetary imaging was using modified webcams with the telescope. I also wrote an article on how to use a webcam with a telescope. But manufacturers are building cameras that are the same price as webcams and without the need for modifications.

SV105 Astronomy Camera - Svbony Blog How to Use SV105 Astronomy Camera - Svbony Blog

For a planetary camera I'd really want to know the frame rate I can use. At this point I can't even tell if it is USB2 or USB3 (I think it is a good assumption that it is not USB1). While the sensor is clearly going to be able to handle a fast frame rate it is not clear to me that the camera itself can implement that. Put the CD into your laptop and follow the prompts to complete the installation. You can use other software like AstroDMx Capture if you please. To be able to capture nebulae or galaxies, the camera needs to be capable of doing long exposure shots of at least a minimum of 30s. The maximum exposure of SVBONY SV105 is only 500ms, so it is impossible to do deep sky astrophotography.Astronomy cameras are always made for a specific purpose. So we have planetary cameras with high FPS and cameras for deep sky imaging capable of doing long exposures. How to capture the best images A common way to mitigate the brightness of the moon is to use a red (Wratten #25) or IR Cut filter. I don't know if a filter can be attached to the end of your camera but if so, the red filter is a good investment.

How to Use Astronomy Camera SVBONY SV105 User Manual

So if anyone uses a telescope with 400mm focal length work together with SV105, don’t put SV105 whole adapter barrel into the diagonal. Try it, please! By the way, If anyone have a telescope with a 300mm focal length. Maybe you need a extend tube （ W2761 ） to connect the SV105 camera. then the camera could focus and capture the clear image. Here is the firmware of SV105 camera. This version firmware only fix the problem of SV105 that slow frame rate at 0.5-1.5 fps. (Note: If you don’t have this problem, please don’t upgrade your SV105 camera). Dark light compensation technology; greatly improve the camera's image clarity in low light conditions; no pixel vignetting;And this applies to any astronomy camera: don’t use any USB hubs or USB extension cables because you may encounter connection issues and even speed issues and transfer stability. From Steve's lunar and planetary pictures, it seems that (although obvious) the performance of the SV105 is not on par with the real planetary cameras like the IMX224 based ones or even the AR130 based ones. Even the SVBONY T7 W2568A (an ASI120 clone a.k.a. "Datyson T7") provides much, much better images (Steve also tried that one). Starting up AstroDMx Capture for Windows and applying real-time flat-field correction to the captured data.

So how well did the Svbony SV105 camera work on capturing Solar images? Take a look at the results below and you decide for yourself! Exposure range goes over a thousand seconds, and output is 12 bit raw, so I think this camera can indeed be used for our kind of EAA, just like other planetary cameras such as the ASI224 or the ASI290MC have been. The developer of AstroDMX for Linuxtried it (using sharpcap) andimaged M2 with it.Also: Try without the diagonal first. Only if you can't reach focus should you try with the diagonal.
