Hi Tom,
My first response was "Wow!" which I followed up in my mind with the questions
that Gene ask. Now I'm curious as to which model of their monochrome cameras do
you have? Have you tried or is the camera capable of any good deep sky results
(I'm guessing yes as max shutter is 60 minutes? Bottom line, do you like it?
Have you looked at their color cameras? Etc, etc, etc....
Pleased advise...
Jimmy Ray

It's an Imaging Source DMK monochrome digital video camera. Three videos of
1000 frames each were shot at 15 frames per second through the R, G, and B
filters, and typically the best 75% of the frames in each color channel were
used for stacking in Registax software.
By the way, a nice "pre-processor" video-editing software package before going
into Registax is authored right here in the Valley by Howard Anderson.
HandyAVI does a good job of sorting frames by quality level and resizing
videos. It has a lot of other good features as well.
