foundaplanet Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I managed to have another go at the Sun today and this is the result. I am using baarder solar film on a WO zenithstar 70 with a 1000d at prime focus. This is a first go at stacking in registax 5.1. I have never used registax before and therefore have very little idea what I am doing other than winging it..I am curious to know if it is possible to achieve a better focus with the kit I am using. I seem to be struggling to get it sharp and have over sharpened the image with wavelets looking for something better.I processed it as a black and white and then tried to colour it up a little in CS2 and would appreciate a guider for this if possible please as I am not very happy with my resulting colour. I used warmify in photofilter and its a bit green.Oh its 50 frames, for some reason registax stacked the lot even though I had quality set at 95..Any comments and tips welcomed...thanks.

markt Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Trick is definitely to nail the focus... Do you have a narrowband filter you could use in the optical train? this would make focussing easier... Good try never the less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Great picture!I would try to use less wavelets as you seem to be getting a few artifacts coming through. Also if you can stack around 200-400 frames you will find you get a better quality image, but trying to get good focus and good seeing is key. It's a great start, this is what the solar challenge is all about Alexandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
