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,  When I use the RGB combine tool with a formula like RGBHOO or the others, does signal to noise ratio improve?  as compared to just using the split R, G, B files?  Is there actually more data in the final image? 

I am still a newby and this question crossed my mind.

 

Thanks.

Hi Andy,

Your SNR (signal to noise ratio) will marginally improve as you combine two images each for one RGB channel, e.g. your R and H frames both would contribute to the R channel of the final image. Note that the improvement will only be marginal though, the SNR will be a factor of SQRT(2) better (roughly by 1.41).

Best regards & CS,

Erich
