Hi, I completed setting up my Stellarmate/EKOS on RPi4. I currently have a Sony A7III and SA 2 Pro (without a WiFi) and was advised by a gentleman to test my Sony A7III connection with EKOS while I am waiting for the Guide Scope and Guide Camera to arrive and do the complete testing. I tried connecting my Sony A7III today and I think I got it to work. I was able to capture image sequence with different Exposures (30s, 0.1, 0.2..). I did see some issues when setting a long exposure i.e. 0.02 or 0.05. The sequence would abort. However with Exposure settings in the range of 30s and 0.2s, I was able to get it to capture the FITS file and save it to the local Pictures folder on the Stellarmate OS. I would like to know further if there are any other settings I should be doing in EKOS for my Sony A7III or am I good with the settings shared below (see the screenshots). I hope this will help others too who are trying to connect their Sony A7III with EKOS. I would like some advice on what else should I test on EKOS with my Sony camera while I wait for my Guide Scope & camera so that I feel comfortable in the field if I run into any issues with it. Please share your experiences/advice. They are always helpful and much appreciated! Regards, Nick      |

Hello, Since you are going to wait for the rest of the equipment, why not do some darks, flats and bias and see if they are ok? |
