Re: Full Frame Focus Exposure Time By Filter
Hello Again. I was able to do some testing last night but ran into problems. I picked up an Ipolar and wanted to see how it performed using Sequence Generator and PhD2 as this is what I’ve used for several years. Needless to say the Ipolar did a very good job.
