From the album: Clear Skies
My first mono image, i got myself a player one ares m pro and a set of lrgb astrodon filters and made the jump, i think i'm already sorry about selling my 533 mc, it was so simple shutting in colour, I watched hundreds of videos about mono imaging before i bought the camera but now that is here and i got 2 nights of clear skies i realized i haven't got a bloody clue guest it will take time to get used to the mono side of astrophotography, still saving up for a set of sho filters, bloody hobby is going to cause a divorce lol -
Hi all, I just bought my first mono camera, which I haven't used yet bloody weather, my question is, when you collecting data on nina every channel goes to the same folder, how can you tell wich one is for example the l, r, g, b, I did a trial run at home tuck a few frames on lrgb and when I looked at the folder there were no hint of wich one is wich, hope it makes sense

thanks Patrick, I did realize about the pixels when i actually stack them properly, and you right about the rejection method, I did that ,thanks for the link, that's what i have been doing lately, just try to find information to understand how all that part of astrophotography works, I think I made the mistake of thinking better equipment equals great pictures without realizing the work in between have to be as good if not better, thanks again for the info.

HI Alacant, your method did work, and as you said I try different ways, darks did make everything worst, your way did the job but I tried flats and dark flats and seems to give a cleaner image, thanks for pointing me on the right direction, for a moment I thought I bought a lemon. This one with just flats and offset values, plus have to remove the other picture it was hurting my eyes lol

Hi thanks for the reply offset was 50, I will give tat a go, I know you said to keep it simple, but nothing is simple when you you are a 60 year old newbie, some times a surprise my self that I learn to use all this programs haha, When you say enter =70 in use bias do you mean i don't have to take biases just enter the =70 thanks
