screen, you may need to stop-down the aperture of your telescope further. Try making another aperture mask with a diameter of only 1⁄4".

10.Turn the telescope’s focus knob so the focuser drawtube moves slowly inward. The drawtube needs to go approximately 18mm inward from where the eyepiece focuses (for most eyepieces). Look at the computer screen and adjust the focus knob accordingly to determine best image focus.

11.Adjust the image orientation, if needed, by rotating the camera within the focuser drawtube. Simply loosen the thumbscrew on the drawtube and rotate the camera until the desired image orientation is achieved. Retighten the thumbscrew on the focuser drawtube when done. You may need to slightly refocus (using the telescope’s focus knob) if the focuser drawtube has moved a bit inward or outward when the camera was rotated.

12.When the image is focused and the image looks acceptable, press the Stop button in the Camera Control Window.

13.Select Single in the pull-down menu underneath Mode in the Camera Control Window.

14.Click the Expose button in the Camera Control Window. An image will appear in a window.

15.Select Save from the File menu to save the image for processing later, if you wish.

You have captured your first image with the StarShoot Pro! This simple method of imaging is exactly how the camera could be used to capture terrestrial subjects during daylight hours. Close-up images of birds and other wildlife or faraway vistas can all be obtained in this way with the StarShoot Pro. Solar images can also be taken during the day with an optional full-aperture solar filter over the front of the telescope.

Take some time to use the camera and Maxim DL Essentials software during the day to become familiar and comfortable with their basic operation.
