Hello,
sorry but this is a mixed (APP & PI) topic...
in order to remove banding artefacts of my Canon 6D I proceeded as follows:
- In APP I did all the main processing (MB, MF, MDF, MD...Integration)
- In Pixinsight I did the 90° rotation + CanonbandingReduction + 90° derotation of the LightFrames + MB, MF, MDF, MD:
- 1. process PI: Fast Rotation 90 deg. clockwise, extension: FITS
- 2. process PI: CBR with default settings
- 3. process PI: Rotation 90 deg. counterclockwise
Then I processed all those Frames in APP: the resulting Integration is gray.
I checked "CFA" + RGGB in APP
My first integration (without Rot / CBR / Derot) in APP was as expected: colour but banding
the corrected frames (after Rot / CBR / Derot) do all have colour.
Any ideas?
thanks, Peter
@peter-s Hi Peter,
Have you tried loading the integrated (and therefore color) image into PI and remove the Canon banding from that image? Touching the raw data usually is a recipe for trouble.
HTH, Wouter
Hi Wouter,
thank you - no, not until now; I wanted to try with a "clean stack".. and my impression was that the caibration frames, especially the Master Bias induced the most of the banding.
I´ll try the banding reduction a) with the L integration, calibrated by the untreated calibration master files
and b) with with the L integration, calibrated by banding corrected calibration master files
as I am not the only one using a Canon camera = the CanonBandingReduction I´d be interested how do others proceed...
Peter
@peter-s Hi Peter,
Try only option a please. Option b will fail. Once more, don't modify raw data. Any raw data.
Wouter
