Introducing my little side-project:

Astro Planner is a web-based astrophotography planning tool that ranks deep-sky targets for tonight based on your location, gear, horizon, moon + light pollution - so you spend less time in Stellarium and more time imaging.

Nice bit of work!

First suggestion - add the sensors found in the most common smart telescopes - eg IMX678 (Dwarf3), IMX462 (S50), IMX415 (Dwarf2) to the sensor pulldown.

Also maybe add presets for the common smart telescopes.

@rdm hey, thanks for the idea! I just released an update with presets for common smart telescope sensors 💪
@adfr
Fantastic! Thanks!
@adfr
One thing, a Dwarf3 has an IMX678 sensor, 7.71x4.35mm.
@rdm oops, fix is on the way :)
