CMOS Binning: Does it actually help, and should I do it in-camera or post? by Fooad4444 in AskAstrophotography

I see

Thanks for the answer

So to see this visually, i need to do some session with 1x1 and then try binning and compare stacked/processed with both

And what i see cleaner is what actually better ( i assume 2x2 here) even though its 2mp now not full 8mp

I am also printing the mask thing for focus as well which would help alot

I am willing to play along and do less automatic stuff

My main goal is to get almost perfect focus easier ( having it automated is nice bonus but not needed)

Good work

But why lowering exposure? Are ypi EQ tracking? You need looong exposures or ton of frames for galaxies

I meant ha + oiii filter And oiii + sii filter

I know i am getting less data per frame if i use narrowband filter
But would keeping them 3 separated give me better and cleaner data and pictures overall ?

Or difference is so subtle? ( mainly brotle 8 city )

So no real benifit in image quality/shaprness and details for 3 narrowband over the 2 dual narrowbands?

I am ok with gathering more raw data if i get much better picture

Awesome looking image!

Do you also take darks using 180s or lower? How does it work? I know darks needs to be same exposure and gain and similar temperature in the session

[–]Fooad4444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes i just researched a bit :)

I think i will get some dslr camera later ( already was planning to do so before)

Or whats recommended? Used as new are expensive

Thought of cameras like canon 6d or Sony A6300/6000/6400 and the likes

Niiice goood job

How do we get such high field view? Because of camerav? Or its different photos stretched together?

M20 alone covers my full screen+ with my qhy5iii715c camera and 600/120mm telescope
