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.

Hi all
Was wondering if anyone can give some advise on the below photos as I am new to Astrophotography, I seem to get grainy photos no matter how many lights I take and how I put through APP, below picture details:
- 0.24 Arc minute polar align error
- PHD2 guiding at 2 seconds
- Skywatcher 300PDS
- ZWO533
- EQ6 mount
- Around 1500 lights @ 15 seconds (due to bortle 6 sky) fits files
- 50 Dark
- 50 Flat
- 50 Bias
Have cropped images to around 3000 by 1500 resolution
Any help or advise anyone could give would be greatly appreciated
Many thnaks
