Title: Atik 450C color conversion
Post by: patholland on June 12, 2012, 03:35:41 pm

I am still having issues with color conversion with the Atik 450C. Does anyone know the proper color conversion numbers for this camera (or chip)? Help Please....

Hi,

Which software are you using?

Maxim DL 5. I would also like to use Images Plus if I could. I use the standard RGB but colors are still off. Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Just use RGB conversion and X and Y offset. That should work.

What would the X and Y offsets be for the Atik 450C camera?

Ahh, sorry I was referring to Maxim DL 4... Don't have access to Maxim 5 at the moment, but should be X=0, Y=1.

In any case, and since software behaves so differently, it's easy to test correct offsets. Just focus on a colorful target and experiment a bit until you get correct color. Also, note that the use of a IR block filter will help getting better color.
