12. Connecting DSLRs

StellarMate supports DSLR cameras using the INDI GPhoto driver based on libgphto2 library. It includes supports for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax and other DSLR cameras. To know if your specific model is supported, please check the DSLR Supported Cameras List. In order to use your camera with StellarMate, it must meet the following requirements:

  • It must support USB. Connect a USB cable from the camera to StellarMate. WiFI cameras are not supported yet.

  • It must support BULB/MANUAL mode where the shutter is controlled by an external program.

Tip: Some modern cameras do not have a Bulb (B) dial. You can set Bulb Mode by selecting Manual (M) dial and then change the exposure duration until you see BULB in the camera.

Tip

Some modern cameras do not have a Bulb (B) dial. You can set Bulb Mode by selecting Manual (M) dial and then change the exposure duration until you see BULB in the camera.

The shutter control can be either executed internally if supported by the camera, or externally via an external release cable (e.g. DSUSB). The INDI GPhoto driver documentation includes all the details on operating DSLR cameras. The INDI driver requires the camera resolution and pixel size upon first connection. When the camera is first detected, StellarMate would look up the camera specifications and fill out the necessary information automatically. Please make sure this information is correct in the INDI Control Panel → Image Info Tab.

Tip

Pentax cameras are supported in INDI GPhoto driver and also in INDI Native Pentax driver. The native driver is experimental but offers more support to Pentax cameras. It’s recommended to try both drivers to see which is more fit for your specific camera model. Captured images are downloaded to StellarMate, and depending on the sensor size and the quality of the WiFi connection, it can take a few seconds for large frames to transfer. Live view video streaming is available on most models to aid in focusing the camera. Selected Canon cameras support focusing operations and can autofocus using the Ekos Focus module. Manual focus is available via Live View or Bahtinov Mask Assistant Tool.

12.2. Troubleshooting

In case the camera fails to connect or capture, please make sure of the following:

Make sure the battery in the camera is full. Make sure the SD card in the camera has enough space. Make sure camera is set to Bulb/Manual mode. You might need to rotate the dial to Bulb or Manual and then adjust camera settings to enable BULB mode. Turn off any power-saving feature of the camera that might cause it to hibernate or sleep. Some cameras support adjustable inactivity timers before automatically turning off. Set such timers to 15 minutes or more. Try a different USB cable. Try a different USB port. Turn off Noise Reduction settings in the camera. Turn off mirror lock in the camera settings.
