    If the Benro is getting JPGs from the camera and it is controlling the camera via USB, it should be able adjust exposure settings automatically based on the images and the histogram. It’s surprising it doesn’t have that ability.

      Well this feature was promised from beginning on and my main reason to buy it, but unfortunately not delivered yet.

  • @lefturn99
    @lefturn99 Před rokem

    Great idea. Sounds like it's not ready for prime time. If you have to set exposure manually, why not use an old Genie?

    • @Sockeye404
      @Sockeye404  Před rokem

      Benro has fixed the bug and now the settings can be smoothly changed in the app. Although it is now quite convenient with the histogram, I am still looking forward to the (promised but still missing) automatic adjustment. But regardless of that, my Genie Mini is collecting dust... do you want ot buy one?

    Heh Sockeye404 - Will Polaris in Astro Mode allow us to set bulb mode exposure length in app now? I can't figure out how.

      Yes, works fine, if you set your cam to Bulb beforehand (at least with my Canon)

  • @hochzeitsfotografseychelle2986

    Ich bin ganz neu in der Astrofotografie (meine erste Woche) und habe mir direkt den Polaris zugelegt! 🤪 Heute Abend ziehe ich wieder hier auf den Seychellen los und übe mich in der generellen Handhabung.
    Das Video ist sehr hilfreich, aber die Hintergrundmusik ist schon recht laut und an einigen Sprachstellen doch sehr störend. Vielleicht beim nächsten Mal ein wenig leiser untermalen? 🙂

    Thank you for sharing this beautiful work: congratulations! It is in my intentions to start timelapse and this very well done explanation of yours will allow me to be more prepared. One question: can you recommend a dummy battery for the Nikon D850? Thank you

    • @Sockeye404
      @Sockeye404  Před rokem

      Sorry, I do not have a Nikon but I presume any dummy having the form-factor of the battery will do. The important thing is, you use a good power delivery (PD) power bank, capable to constantly provide the required voltage and current for the Nikon. (I had tried different power banks I already owned, but they either did not power my Canon at all or the camera shut down when the power consumption increased (8K video, highspeed shots))

    • @spirithealershamanism
      @spirithealershamanism Před 8 měsíci +1

      I have battled mine since it first came out. So many cliffs I nearly tossed it over! BUT the reality is that you cannot get the same stability and auto leveling from a Star Adventurer style tracker. Once you put on the gear to a star adventurer to make the tracker function for astro panos the camera wobbles in the wind. So I use the GD Benro - WITH my personal intervalometer and manually adjusting my camera settings. It's a star tracker. That's all.

    • @Sockeye404

      @@voederbietels Check out the (now working) "Holy Grail" Function. With that the Polaris adjusts the exposure according to light level. I use it e.g. for day -> night transition timelapses. Of course this does not deliver 100% smooth results. (but anyway better results than any autoexposure functions I know of) But you still need to adjust the sequence with the app "LRTimlapse". I wanted to make a video for it but somhow I did not manage to find the time to cut the video 🙂
