APT (Astrophotography Tool) 3.80 Released Today
As the title implies. The major new feature is the support of all the ZWO cameras. Or as Ivo says it, "adding native support for ZWO cameras and building the architecture for “Video LiveView”'
Hopefully, I'll get a clear sky sometime soon to check out some of the new features.
Cheers,
JT

Re: APT (Astrophotography Tool) 3.80 Released Today
Thanks JT!
Actually,APT sent me an email a couple of days ago about the new version.
Installed 3.80 this afternoon and looking forward to giving it a spin soon. My modded D5300 is due to arrive this Thursday and I am really excited.
Ivo andAPT are wonderful to work with. Version 3.80 contains a mod that I suggested on the APT forum that was included in beta version 3.73 (default iso for Pointcraft plate solving. I have found a sweet spot with my setup where I can blind solve just about anywhere anytime at iso 3200 with a 3 second exposure. Works flawlessly for plate solve goto ’s (goto ++) and meridian flips.
Awesome software that i will continue to use for quite some time!
Thanks again JT!
