Live View is Hard to See

[swmddo]

I have a T1i and have been very happy using the "Preview" to check out the image for validating the focus.  However, when I go to the Frame & Focus option, the Live View is almost unseeable.  Unless there is a VERY bright star to use as a focus item, the screen is almost black.  

 

Am I doing something wrong?  

 

Thanks

Well.. that is what live view is... barely 10 millisecond of data so only bright stars will show up.

 

You need to find a bright star or revert to taking 1 to 3 seconds snap pictures (with the loop feature) to see dimmer stars and still manage to focus.
