Bahtinov Grabber

I've not seen this mentioned anywhere on SGL, but it looks like a potentially useful bit of software:

March 2009 Niels Noordhoek’s weblog

I shall definitely be trying it out next time there's any sign of night sky. (Note to self: put it in the calendar for 2015.)

Yes, works well for me. I put the mask on, get focus close by eye and then fire up the grabber.

Dion uses this software in one of his Astronomy shed video tutorials. Looks very useful and I will be trying it out when/if the weather improves.

I have been using it for yonks and have recommended it on several occasion.. there is (or maybe was) one thing to watch out for...

If your looking through the various options DON'T click on the ascom focuser unless you have one or you are in for a world of pain...

Thanks for that

It has been round for a while now and is a very useful tool.
