UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hi there,
we (another Astro photographer and I) want to put our integrated lights together. To get a photo with a lot of exposure time.
Of course we have different cameras and telescopes.
Is it possible to do this with Astro Pixel Processor?
If so, how? 🙂
Good idea! - just chiming in here to get updates.
I don't know about different scopes, but different cameras yes. At least I was able to integrate raw files from both my unmodded D5300 and modded D5100. Oh course, they are similar, and I shot through the same scope (Celestron C8), but it worked. Good luck!
I have done it in the past with different scopes and cameras.
I tried to put two photos together. Unfortunately, the registration does not work perfectly. An APO teleskope does not fit perfectly with a mirror telescope.
I'm kind of surprised its that far off. Did you use "dynamic distortion correction" in the registration tab? And uncheck "same camera and optics"
Yes have tried all of these options. With and without. I experimented. However, it never became perfect.
Yes this is possible, we've made integrations of >5-10 different setups and combined them in APP automatically. It's one of its strengths even. It does become easier when each setup has nicely corrected data ofcourse, if one of them is distorted, that might be an issue. That would be an issue for any package though. So could you post an integration of the mirror scope and one of your setup here?
Dropbox File (Private or Invalid)Great, thanks, I'll download them and will come back to you.
Could you procide me with the fits of both maybe? That would give me more information. But anway, was one of them mono and the other color? The M78_RAW_stack produces a very weird histogram in RGB. I'll experiment a little. 🙂
The file M78_RAW_stack is from the Astro colleague. He wrote me:
the histogram is shot for me because my flats are not color neutral. Therefore here is a red cast in the pictures ....
Equipment:
Esprit100 at F4.3
ASI1600MC-Pro
The other file is from me. I use the Skytatcher 200/1000 PDS with comacorrector and the Canon 5D MK IV.
