Can anyone tell me how long it takes to download a full frame image from the old ST-8 imager?
Thanks,
Joe.

Hi Joe,
I would imaging it would depend on what computer you have, but for what it is worth it takes about 3 minutes (!) on my old P233 laptop. Binning 2x2 brings it down to a more manageable 45 seconds.
Cheers,
Maurice

Under a minute if you have sufficient memory. It can take longer if your computer is using virtual memory (spooling memory to the disk instead of using RAM).
