I am new to Skytools and only been trying to image the skies since last November. My camera is a ZWO ASI 294mm PRO and unfortunately it is not listed in the Camera Pool. There are about three available in the community pool but strangely enough the parameters of all three seem to be of when the camera is in Bin 2 mode. Since I normally use my camera in the Bin 1 mode at gain 108, I tried to setup a new camera using parameters for the Bin 1 mode, but I am getting riduculously long exposure times. I got the values from the manufacturer's website so I believe that the values should be correct. Should I actually be using the camera in Bin 2 mode. FWIW the camera is coupled to a Willams Optics RedCat 61 WIFD.
