My allsky was just returned after being cleaned and repaired. After installation, I'm noticing a daylight image issue. The entire right side of the image appears masked. I was thinking a stuck shutter however; there are clouds visible in the darkened area. As the sun rises, the darkened area begins to disappear in the area around the sun however; stays dark to the left and above. The issue is not present at night with 1 or 2 minute exposures. Lens iris is fully open and I've tried different stops with no change noted. During daylight, the exposure time noted in the top left of the image are 0.0000 to 0.0002 seconds. Is this normal? Prior to repair, I do not recall the daylight exposures being that short. Thanks, Dan Ford
If you have not done so already, you should contact Bill Lynch...he will likely need to look at the unit again.
