    Is there any reason why the camera gain for an ST-10XME which was listed in the FITS header when acquiring images using Maxim should not appear when using TheSkyX Camera Add on?

    Probably whoever wrote the TheSkyX plug-in for SBIG drivers didn't implement the feature.

    So as I was suspecting, it is an issue with TheSkyX Camera Add on and not the camera driver?

    Larry, you might want to ping Richard W at Bisque about it.

    MaxIm DL gets the EGAIN value from the SBIG Universal Driver.

    So, yes.
