It easily lets you setup different lights and cal frames by session and channel and then you check the box saying different optics and it integrates it. There are a ton more tuning options and I find the best way is to make each stack and then integrate the stacks together in mosaic mode...
I think you’ll get better results taking individual images of around at least 10 to 15 seconds each and then stacking those in DSS, I don’t think capturing as an AVI is giving you the best noise and exposure performance. And you really want the format to be what the camera produces ...
Sequator has a handy “Freeze Ground” feature that allows you to stack tracked images of the night sky with a stationary foreground. This feature works surprisingly well, and you may find this method to be sufficient for your wide-angle nightscapes. Stacking Software for Milky Way Photography ...
I find it useful to use the StarNet++ star removal tool at the end of my image processing workflow in the “finishing touches” stage. Here is my proposed workflow when using StarNet++ at this stage of the process. Register and stack your data Process your image with stars intact Run the...
For the above image, I stacked in Sequator using Wine, then fed the stack into PixInsight (using a trial license). I ran the Background Extraction process on the file, then started adjusting curves using the HistogramTransformation process and black point with the arcsinhStretch process. ...
My guess is that only way to do this in Pixinsight would be via PixelMath. Or write my own software. As mentioned above, the simplest way to use HDR is to stack each set of subs of the same exposure, then combine. But it would actually be better to combine them all at once - yo...
This one of the many reasons amateur astrophotographers like myself capture several exposures andstackthem together. If you’re shooting images using a DSLR camera, you’ll likely need to apply dark calibration frames to each and every one of your astrophotography image projects. ...
Using DeepSkyStacker to stack and register individual images together. Follow along with me in an Image Processing Tutorial using Deep-Sky Stacker and Photoshop. I hope you have enjoyed this how-to guide on astrophotography for beginners. With the right tools and a little patience, you too will...
NINA uses PixInsight to do live stacking. Personally I wouldn't be interested in buying PI just to live-stack in NINA (I only do very basic post on my EAA captures). If there were more capable tools in NINA (where I could make image adjustments similar to Sharpcap while live-stacking)...
Also I’m on mac, I’ve been using Siril, ASTAP, PS, and I have the pixinsight free trial. What other programs do people use on mac? I am not the best processor and most of the complex stuff is beyond me, so I just use Siril to Stack and Affinity to adjust the colours. ...
