Adz builds a DIY Astrophotography Camera for £120 Part 4 Raspberry Pi Zero & HQ High Quality Camera
Soooooo
In total, i've spent £116.04 on this little project
I actually had some cloud-free sky for a change, that meant only one thing!! Test the Raspberry Pi DIY Astro cam, it only bloody works doesn't it!
So I set it on a tripod connected to the wi-fi and left it to shoot away (after some tweaking of the code and focus) Time-lapse at around the 1.40 mark so keep watching to see how it performed!
This little Raspberry Pi camera will be great for GoPro style Night Lapses or an All-Sky camera
In part 4 you can see the timelapse created from the still JPG's and made into a timelapse in Da Vinci Resolve.
Heres the code: raspistill -w 3840 -h 2160 --metering average -t 36000000 -tl 0 -ex 'off' -ss 30000000 -ISO 800 --analoggain 4 -q 100 -r -o image%04d.jpg --stats --burst
The Raspberry Pi HQ camera has a 12.3 megapixel Sony IMX477 sensor, 7.9mm diagonal sensor size, and back-illuminated sensor, that's the same megapixels and sensor size as a GoPro!
