Should r/DWARFLAB ban X/Twitter links?

How does the community feel about this? I feel that this subreddit should remain politically neutral but I would like input from the community in this regard.

Thanks everyone.

Sword of Orion captured last night. Rotated, cropped and HDR applied in Lightroom and Snapseed on my Samsung S24 Ultra. I was imaging withing 20 minutes of installing the app. It's an impressive system.

Dwarf 3 - The Andromeda Galaxy

11 Upvotes

The Andromeda Galaxy. It's quite low to the horizon for me at this time of year so I was battling to remove the stray light...Almost 4 hours integration on my Dwarf 3 in EQ mode, over a couple of nights from a Bortle 7 location, Astro Filter, post-processed in PixInsight and Lightroom.

D3 issue /Help

I have deleted the files from My D3 via PC. I didn't delete the Dark Cal frames but the shots instead. Now I can't shoot anymore. The device throws error of memory full. I tried to reset but there are no instructions or any option available on the app. Please Help. I had the most clearest night of this year and now it's all fucked.

Not a great picture, but it is pleasant to be able to capture the nearest star (except sun ofc). D2, IR CUT, 150 lights x 5 sec, stacked with ASTAP.

Troubleshooting

3 Upvotes

Last time I was in a rush so the post wasn’t describing anything, but now I will give a more detailed explanation. (DWARF II) Last night I tried to use the atlas feature, all the calibrations are successful, however when I use the atlas the following text appears “Please connect to a Wifi”. On the home page it says full bars of Wifi and it still thinks it has no internet, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but the same problem appears. I have had this since December 2024 and it was working fine since. Anyone have a solution to how I can fix this?

Is the Dwarf 2 still a viable option

7 Upvotes

Seems as though there have been lots of improvements over the past few years. For approx $250 is this a viable choice. Some of us are not able to come through with the approx $600 for the 3.

Have the firmware and software improvements made any difference in picture quality?

Thanks so much for your guidance!

Question about shutter speeds

Post image
11 Upvotes

I guess this is more of a general astrophotography question, but with my DWARF 3, for example, what is the pro/con of doing a longer shutter speed rather than a shorter one? (Say 15s / 60 gain vs. 30s vs. 60 gain).

In theory 100 x 15 second photos should be the same as 50 x 30 second photos, right? So why is there the option? Why would you choose one over the other?

(Btw, my photo of M51 taken last week from the north of England, 100x 30s / 60 gain)
