Popular Post +Ibbo Posted June 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2020 I started out trying to run run NINA and it failed to connect the ccd so I tried APT instead to make sure the old cam still worked and managed to grab just the 4 subs. Taken wih the TS 71 and the old SXH9 and the 7nm baader filter. I have since got NINA to connect so that is one for next time.

+RonC Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Nice, couldn't get on with NINA so I'm sticking with APT... each to his own I suspect! 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presume your 7nm is Ha.. what exposure length did you have there? Yes it was but that Ha his now on the 132 so I'm using the 12nm. 300 secs and here is another bit of it which needs a bridging pane, it looks like I will need a 6 pane mosaic to do the whole of IC1318 A,B & C - I have seen rferences to C but not sure if it is offical this one was taken with NINA and agin 300secs but 27 subs.

The only one I tried, I had a difference between the sky values of the two panes, and couldn't work out a way to match them.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't got that, got Photoshop, and now finally committed to PixInsight. Is there an underlying idea that sorts it out, or is APP just 'Magic'?

+Ibbo Posted June 22, 2020 Author Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) It was the one that has worked for me I did that 4 pane Veil and the others that I tried -Maxim, Registar or Astro Art could not solve the mosaic. APP did it first try and sorted the background out automatically. Edited June 22, 2020 by Ibbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
