    As David says can't compare to a dedicated planetary camera.

    Yes said scope, fpl51, what would the L3 do?, I had a LPS D2 filter in the scope.

    Getting a bit more practice with the new camera and software,have to say that NINA is a cracking bit of software and really nice to use. I am also using APP trial version but will purchase the owners licence, i would think,but still have to do a little bit in GIMP.

    I just use the de-fault, 100 gain, 70 offset.
  7. paul mc c
    I done the same and thought i had lost all my images,you will have any images you took,just need to find them.
  8. paul mc c
    Just getting the hang of NINA my self and had same problem,did you name the file as in what you were imaging as this screen shot.You can make a folder on your desktop or where ever you want it to go.

    That's class...

    No reducer, but probably need one, yea I have a lot to learn. I will have another play with my data and see if I can improve.

    Again still learning with the zwo 533 mc and Astro Pixel Processor,but can see some progress anyway. Iris nebula around 5 hours lights,flats and dark flats......though for some reason i have dust bunnies which tells me i didn't add the flats/dark flats correctly. Forgive all the issues but as i say still getting to grips with the new gear.
  12. paul mc c
    If you say the halos rotate when you rotate the flattener, then that's your culprat, have you tried with out the flattener?

    Brilliant..

    Can't seem to see it.

    First image with OSC and trial version of APP,still deciding on what processing software to get,but like the feel of APP as PI was far to complicated for me. Around 2 hours 180 sec lights only,nothing special but so glad i am getting to grips with the new set up.
  16. paul mc c
    Yep have found the way to save it ,i was staring at all the time,just never opened the box right, thanks all.
  17. paul mc c
    This doesn't seem to give me that option,that is what is confusing.I have attached another screen shot,maybe it is because i have the trial version.
  18. paul mc c
    Hi all,how would i go about saving my image from APP,i have the trial version so just learning to use it and trying to save the image in the screen shot,any help would be greatly appreciated. Paul
  19. paul mc c
    But they are saved as files rather than images,if i could see them as images i could delete the bad ones,i could do this with APT.

    Hello all just a quick question, I took a couple of hours if lights last night which took me to around 3.00 in the morning, it was clear most of the night but when the session ended it had clouded over. My question is can I check individual light frames to see what ones we're clouded out before I do any processing. Paul
  21. paul mc c
    Bit more processing...i know very noisy.
  22. paul mc c
    Now thats another story...lol

    Finally after a month busting to use my new camera,got an opportunity last night,still getting use to the change from a dslr,and still using GIMP,but am deciding to upgrade that to something better.Not sure if getting flats/dark flats properly,but will work on that. Nothing special but at least got every thing working. 60x240 sec lights 10 dark flats 20 flats
  24. paul mc c
    Update,thank you all i have found them......turns out they were saved under m57 which i was trying ti image a few nights ago and i never changed the image file name,so thats where they were.
  25. paul mc c
    Sorry just back in,no mate not at all,i appreciate any help i can get,i have been having a nightmare since changing to the 533mc,unfortunately my I.T skills are not good but will try and see if they are somewhere on the computer.
