Apr 9 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 has been released !
It has a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration, for mosaics even faster! We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. Improved Outlier Rejection with LN 2.0 rejection. macOS CMD+A works now in file chooser ! And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming hours...
Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

If your camera model is not on this list, please share one of your ARW files and we will add full support for your camera.
Please contact support by e-mail for upload instructions at support@astropixelprocessor.com
Be aware: APP will read all ARW files, but if your camera is not on this list yet, correct interpretation of your data cannot be fully guaranteed.
I have 4 Sony cameras, a5000, a5100, a6000 and a7.
A5000 and a7 are full spectrum cameras.
I normally use Samyang lenses with astro filter and IR/UV cut filter (is this necessary ?) for chromatic abberation ?
Does APP application automatically balance temperature colours for full spectrum raw files or do i need to check some setting in APP for full spectrum files ?
Thanks for any kind of information,Â
Best regards,Â
Matej
The Sony a6600 is also supported, as I just learned from successfully processing an image (93 lights + about 21 each of Darks, Flats, and Bias).
