Video Imaging-- Getting Started

Posted By Edward Ringel

Hi,
I have a new Mintron video camera with the very high sensitivity CCD chip. It is also marketed as the Stellacam EX-Lite. I have been having trouble controlling contrast on bright objects such as jupiter. My suspicion is that my settings are wrong with respect to AGC control etc. I'm not sure where to start. Would appreciate any suggestions or places to look/get started. Thanks.
