Question
orbmanBYEOS
I am using BYEOS with a Canon 7DII and various lenses on a Star Adventurer tracker for DSO and planetary imaging. The tracker accepts ST-4 auto-guider input for RA only. I do not have an auto-guider, but can correct small amounts of star trailing on each image in post-processing prior to stacking. As I am shooting in LiveView mode, would it be possible for BYEOS to develop a new function to every few seconds or so, grab a LiveView frame, image match, and send RA corrections to the tracker via a separate cable?
During planetary imaging, BYEOS grabs about 22 to 24 frames per second and generates a JPEG for each frame, and then generates an AVI file at the end of the imaging sequence. Seems like it could do something similar during a long exposure, and there shouldn't be much of a RA difference from one image to the next, so image matching should be a quick process??
This additional function could be an upgrade to the license that I would certainly pay for.
