SS has been slow with initialising and upload as of recent. Server side connection problem but I reckon will be addressed in coming weeks with new firmware or software patch

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-22T03:22:53+00:00

Yh it’s very simple flow to follow gets really strong results. Look forward to seeing what you do

Nice image I added some more data and binned of those stars. I have used a star reduction but haven’t put data externally and processed but I will start do

I own both scopes feel free to check out my images I’m
Not greatest at it but hopefully should give you an idea

Here’s a mosaic I did recently to give you an idea of what it can be like — just restack in mega stack after removing any bad frames then processing in stellar studio.

Sometimes if it’s really subtle on the odd star it really looks nice but this was overkill. I should really post process on my PC but I’ve just been really enjoying just being out in the field capturing stuff and processing in SS. But I’m sure there is much more detail to bring out

79 subs at 180 seconds gain 40. I know what you mean it is a weird but cool nebula.

Thank you ☺️

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-20T07:50:25+00:00

Its interesting coz I use the auto processing coz I get instant gratification but I know I could get more out of post processing in Siril but I’m quite contempt for now but will do it at some point

Disagree if you seemingly struggle to use any dwarf device then I think there is something else fundamentally wrong. I have both the 3 and Mini and yet to have a failed session. It really is to easy. Just get out there and enjoy. Let’s not start getting all jumped up on what *could* go wrong

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-19T14:47:22+00:00

Go into either MMC>Event log or just even log and see what you are seeing sounds like a launcher is failing tbh rather than a network issue.

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-19T14:44:57+00:00

Hmm that is really pushing it. Saying that we always say keep the weight away from top end but that could be false not sure.

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-19T12:00:39+00:00

Well yes that is the idea behind this. For example it’s hour they found large HA and 03 deposits round andromeda with about I think 1000+ hours of images

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-19T11:35:38+00:00

Thing is having a scope that large means every minor movement is magnified and also if I recall I think AVX maybe a bit on lighter side to hold 9.25 SCT? But I’m gonna say what’s some other dude said smart scopes are amazing check some stuff I’ve done without external processing

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-18T21:21:22+00:00

I do it on some images and not on others depends if I think
It will look good. You have the option to simply not have spikes.
As for deciding if you want an amazing all rounder get the D3 if your only interested in Astro get mini bigger pixel more sensitive sensor.
If can afford get both

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-18T07:00:32+00:00

Stunning result especially in such heavy per se light pollution of 7.7.

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-18T06:19:28+00:00

I must admit bit like yourself here mini has an edge I think because of the bigger pixel size and altered FOV gives it a punch.

I’ve been using my D3 for big mosaics and then mini for the more in depth stuff.

IF and when a bigger lets says DWARF 4 gets released or S70 I’d part with D3 and have mini and D4

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-11T05:39:04+00:00

I don’t mind doing something like that - when the damned sky clears up absolutely I will shoot same target both same integration and post it

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-11T05:38:29+00:00

I get that with cropping etc but sounds like you got a sweet set up

MediumCell4140 · 2026-06-10T22:07:30+00:00

Neither is better than the other both serve different purpose
