atik 383l proper methods for cooling
« on: July 21, 2012, 10:17:27 pm »
is it necessary to "warm up" the 383L+ to ambient temperature after an imaging session and before turning the camera off? or....can I just turn the camera off after an imaging session?
Thanks,
Robert

Ideally the camera should be warmed up prior
To turning it off. Programs such as Maxim
Allow you to do this.

Thanks Mike...I'm using Nebulosity and the scripts allow a cool down/warmup routine
