Would you be so kind as to make a video showing how to use KStars + Ekos focusing with a DSLR in the field? I have never been able to get it to find an 'in focus' solution. I end up unplugging the focuser and manually focusing my SCT+Nikon and hoping for the best.
@@johneevans1Your videos are the best! Very very informative and extremely helpful. I too use a dslr and cannot seem to get focus solution and unfortunately no one else has taken up your idea to leave it to others. You did a demo using a dslr in another video several years ago. Please, please do a dslr focus walk through / demo!
@@johneevans1 John do you have any advice on settings to use in focus module for using a Nikon DSLR that has auto focus? Can focus module even control a dslr with auto focus feature?
@@DennisCollyer Unfortunately I've never used a DSLR so I can't really offer anything here. It looks like the intention in the code (before my time) is to allow DSLRs to be controlled by Focus but as to how to use things I'm afraid I can't help. My only suggestion, other than playing around yourself, would be post on the Indilib forum (its back up after its recent problems) and see if any other DSLR users can help.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I’ve never used a DSLR so will have to leave this for others.
