  1. Hey could ypu recommend which package you went for as I'm seriously considering this. Just alot of money to chuck in all at once shame he does not do a subscription
  2. Know worries just come back into the hobbies after along time away and this actually came up in a Google search and I wanted to see the video
  3. Hello All I'm interested to know what everyone else does when guiding. My question is is it better or not to bin the guide camera. I have a QHY5 ii with a finder guider set up and ST80. Was wondering if it is better to bin the camera or not and what are peoples thoughts on this
  4. Thank you for the clarification
  5. Hello I have just purchased this mount from FLO and can you tell me when you opened the box with the legs in it was leg extender clamps facing inwards like in my picture.
  6. Excellent work and nice and natural with wonderful colors
  7. I'm currently trying to process a version of the rosette nebula. I have not been able to do any imaging over the last 5 years and when I stopped I just purchased a CCD camera and Pixinsight. The images I had taken I did not bin my RGB and now wondering after seeing your image to maybe bin the colour from now one as the green and blue channels seem to have the most noise. Was it difficult jump to go exclusively to Pixinsight ?
  8. I suppose what I'm trying to get at is the Dark frame with the bias frame subtracted should be as expected and from what you are saying it is ?. The light and dark were exposed at the same times and temperatures. Ian
  9. I'm following guides on how to process images in Pixinsight and they are all going in the direction of calibrating the dark with a bias in image calibration. This is one guide I'm following: Light Vortex Astronomy - Tutorial (PixInsight): Pre-processing (Calibrating and Stacking) Images in PixInsight But something does not feel right Ian
  10. Could anyone please advise on potentially a issue I'm having. When I stack my dark files I find everything looks good as expected. MASTER DARK.xisf But when I apply the bias to the dark file in image calibration the pixel value (I think) goes to zero and the dark is not completely black. MASTER DARK_c.xisf Can someone tell me if this is expected, the above dark is also auto stretched. The dark was taken at -20C five minute exposer on a SX TRIUS 694 CCD. I have also included the master bias MASTER BIAS.xisf Regards Ian]
