Eagle Image stacker

[Lee_P]

This is an unusual one! An app for stacking has recently been released for Android smartphones. Is it any good? I've written a review here: https://urbanastrophotography.com/index.php/2022/10/22/review-eagle-image-stacker/

(The short answer for anyone that doesn't want to click through: it's got potential but needs more development).

I was able to use it the other night. I combined 7 RAW widefield (28mm equivalent) 20 second exposures  @ISO 800 of the Orion region. I was surprised to see the flame nebula in the resulting stack. It definitely shows promise. I talked with the developer and he's going to integrate calibration frames in the near future. So, stay tuned.

Here's a quick shot from the other night before moonrise. This is only 5 subs  @20" and ISO 500. The program stacks much more easily after the last update.

I've actually got the update and am planning another test on the next clear night. Your result is good!
