Planetary Mode & Camera Setting

[wrz0170]

Hello! I am very new to AP so please be gentle. Using an SV80 with a Canon T2i and for the moment, the trial version of BYE. Question is the camera setting. When I am in Planetary Mode, do I want the dial on the camera to be in "M" or Video mode (Crop)?

 

I get the impression that the Video mode 640x480(crop) would be for untethered camera?

 

Thanks!

The camera needs to by in dial M mode.

 

For planetary you will want to use a TV shutter of less than 1 second and probably a low ISO as well.

 

When record make sure to use the 5x zoom which gives your a 1:1 pixel resolution = best possible quality.

Thank you!! At the suggested starting points of less than a second and low ISO, I would make those settings in BYE and not the camera itself as BYE controls the camera?

That is correct, those settings are right there in the planetary windows in the upper right.
