Hi, everyone, I was wondering if I am using 12 nm. Narrowband filters for my qhy 163 m camera, should I use a lower gain and offset, because these filters have a wider bandpass, or can I use the same gain, offset as say 6 nm. Filters, and does anyone have a good recommend gain and offset for my 12 nm. Filters for the qhy 163? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Shawn

As a reminder, the ASI1600 uses the same sensor as the QHY163 so the information you will find with that CN post should apply.

How do you deal with camera Offset?
Hello folks, until now, I did not really care about the offset settings of my ASI183MM camera. I just took the images setting exposure time and gain. Then, an almost unmentionable comment from amother user made me think of using the offset parameter ...
