My new ATIK 314E, is it colour or mono?
« on: December 17, 2012, 10:57:12 PM »
Hi All,

I thought I just bought an Atik 314E colour camera and I have a question.

It seems to only output mono, should the camera say 314EC?

The sticker on the back says 314E only.

I have tried debayering in ArtemisRGB, Nebulosity, Deep Sky Stacker etc and nothing I do seems to make it a colour pic.

Photoshop thinks its greyscale.

Do I have a mono camera or a colour one? How can I tell for sure?

Thanks

Chris

This post is no longer needed, I have "upgraded" the now obsolete (it WAS mono) camera back to the supplier and have a new 314L+ Colour CCD which actually has Colour CCD printed on its sticker.

First impressions are good, as per the attached image taken last night (6 mins exposure only, 6 x 30 secs and 1 x 180 sec, no darks or flats)....a VERY clean camera this one....love it!

So, all good, as you were.....

Cheers

Chris
