Hi 

I'm trying to use the planetary section with a d 750 and I am not able to click on the 5 x button, not to sure what setting I need to do cheers

Not sure what you mean by "I am not able to click on the 5X button". Do you mean that the button is disabled (grayed out) or that clicking on the 5X button does not have the desired effect. Does it behave the same way in Frame and Focus mode?

It would be helpful to know which version, like 2.0.11, of BYN you are using and also the steps to recreate the issue and the exact behavior of BYN, with screenshots if necessary.

I will also suggest that the D750 has been released for several years and if nobody else has reported the same issue then what you are seeing is probably due to some in-camera setting that is interfering with BYN's control. The camera has many settings that are only accessible from the camera's menus. This means that BYN can neither see nor change the settings. I searched the BYN Forum (yes, there is a search facility) for D750 and 5X and could not find anyone else who reported a similar issue.

I suggest that you verify that Live View Zoom works when the camera is not plugged into the PC. Also review the menu settings for any that may be affecting the zoom capability.

It has also been discussed at length on this forum that the Nikon Live View zoom works/behaves differently from Canon's implementation and the result may not be as satisfying. On Canon cameras, 5X zoom gives a 1-to-1 relationship between sensor pixels and pixels on the LCD display. Since the camera provides the same image to BYE as is displayed on the LCD display this means that a 5X zoom image that is provided to the PC is at the full resolution of the sensor. Nikon's implementation is different and the resolution may not be the best possible. This is not something that BYN can work around.

5X is mostly a Canon feature... and will only work on most recent Nikon... I was able to make it work with the Nikon Z lineup.

Thanks for the quick reply, I am using 2.0.11 at the moment and I have attached screen shots to describe the issues. The issues is in both planetary and FF the 5 x button is dark, I hover my ,mouse over the button it turns a grey colour, then I click the button it goes back to the dark colour. Thanks again for your help.

In your screen shots, 5X does not appear disabled, but it is not selected. Apparently it does not work with your model. This is an SDK issue, not a BYN issue.
