Hi,

I am using a ZWOASI294MC PRO Colour camera.

When I preview in SharpCap and also preview the fits images they clearly have colour in them however when I load into APP, along with the flats and darks they are coming out monochrome. APP is even referring to it as a monochrome image when I am using option s in tab 9.

The colour space column says GRAY 8 and so on.

I would be very grateful for any assistance.

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

 

Did u set the bayer pattern on RGGB? Look at the tab 0 here you can set this. Use RGGB and check the box FORCE CFA. Then you get colour images.

 

Clear skies Jan-Willem
