ATIK .tif file issue

[laser_jock99]

I shot a nights worth of subs with an ATIK 460EX OSC camera and made the 'mistake' of saving the results in .tif format (apparently I should have used .fits)

The supplied software ATIK DAWN seems to offer no possibility of showing these files in colour or converting them to regular colour .tif files?

Any ideas on how this could be done?

ps- now I know why I like DSLR imaging.........

won't dds stack them?

Could you not just change the file extensions to .fits

I think I did this once and that this was the solution but I can't be sure.

Not used it but may help.

Well I sort of got there in the end using DSS

1) Open each .TIF file individually in DSS and save as .FTS (16 bit)

2) In the DSS options> RAW/FITS DDP Settings menu> FITS files tab, tick the monochrome OSC box then select the right Bayer Matrix (in this case GBRG).

3) Import and stack the FITS files under these settings.

4) Save as 16 bit TIF for further processing.

First attempt at CCD osc

you can all so open them in artemis and save it as .fits so you will have both it will save a new fits file but will not convert the tiff.
