Have you tried the Help file in AA5? I found that easy enough to follow.

I'd certainly start with the AA5 help and the Manual.....

Earl,

With the permission of the moderators, I have great documentation of AA5 in the Soup to Nuts series. I am a Beta tester and was a small collaborator with Fabio on several elements of v. 5 so you'll find great info and several free samples-. IP4AP - S2N Series and recommended by Fab here Astroart image processing Enjoy and Thank you!

Some time ago I had a video detailing how best to use flats and biases in Astroart5 to callibrate my M25C light frames. I followed it for years, but have grown old... older, and can't find it anywhere in my files.

If anyone knows of it can they please let me have a link to it? As I said I'm growing older, and don't now have the energy to take photographs myself, but do support and advise some younger members of our group in the black art of astrophotography.

+1 for the IP4AP suggestion. Under "Legacy" there are a few free vids. They range fron AA3 to AA4, but the principles are still relevant. Mostly based around pre-processing- but that is AA's strong suit.

Thank you kind Sir. I remember Warren Keller from a long time ago, and going through some of his Soup and Nuts reactivated all sorts of memories that had faded. And though it'll re-activate my processing, it's not the particular video that I used. Thank you.
