 ===== Tethered Shooting =====
 **Tethered shooting**, or wired or remote shooting, generally refers to controlling a camera using a computer, laptop, or even a smartphone.
-==== Tethered Shooting am OST ====
-Die am OST genutzten CCDs werden alle ferngesteuert angebunden. Das dazu genutzte Programm ist [[de:ost:ccds:maximdl|Maxim DL]] bzw. [[de:ost:ccds:ccdops|CCDOPS]], dessen Verwendung nicht Thema diese Artikels sein soll. Dieser Artikel fokussiert sich auf die Nutzung einer Digital- oder Kompaktkamera und ist deshalb auch außerhalb des astronomischen Bereiches anwendbar.

+The CCDs used at the OST are all tethered remotely. The programs used for this are [[en:ost:ccds:maximdl|Maxim DL]] or [[en:ost:ccds:ccdops|CCDOPS]], the use of which is not the subject of this article. This article focuses on the use of a digital or compact camera and is therefore also applicable outside the astronomical field.

 Remote shooting is not always straightforward. First of all, it should be noted that not every camera supports tethered shooting. This can be found out e.g. at the manufacturer. Alternatively, the software described here offers a query that shows whether and which functions are supported.
-The Canon EOS 700D currently used in the lab course supports all relevant functions.

 The much more comprehensive software solution is Darktable. It offers far more functions, but these are mainly used in the field of professional photography. For astronomical purposes these are mostly not helpful. Moreover, the large range of functions comes at the expense of clarity. Especially when used in combination with a laptop that only has a smaller screen, the very extensive Darktable quickly causes confusion.

 Entangle is now started for the actual work.

 To establish a connection, the item //Connect// can be found in the //Camera// menu. A small window will now show a list of all available cameras. With a click on Connect the program should establish the connection.

 If the menu bar on the left is not displayed, a click on the blue highlighted gear wheel on the screenshot will help. On the left side, the most common setting options are now displayed collectively. This overview can be extended by clicking on the small gear wheel at the end. From the now much longer list, the desired elements can be selected.  However, the important settings are already available at the beginning. Below the settings, a histogram is displayed according to the color channels as soon as an image is available or the live mode is active.
