Please Add bulb mode for astrophotography

Open N6REJ opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

Doing astrophotography is not very easy currently. Live view can't "see" so focusing is almost impossible. There is no "focuser" widget like some other programs have and no bulb mode for longer then 30" exposure's nor multiple capture unless your in live view.

idk if its relevant but i can NEVER see anything in live view during astrophotography either.. I was hoping I could focus via live view.

Which Telescope? On my Mak127 I can only see the brightest Stars in Liveview. So I slew to a bright star, focus, slew back to target and go.
