I just shot a range of flat's the other day and tried again. The only thing I can not remove properly is the purple color, I do a run later on this week at...
Hi Eelko, Your image is is already much better. There is still a little vignetting and a strange vertical band (maybe JPEG compression but I don't think so). ...
Hi Luc, I have tried that, but the computer locked up on me. I had a file of 173 MB with the master flat and all the flats that I used. I figured out that I...
Hi, I've just used DeepSky Stacker for the first time and am very impressed with the ease of use. I literally set it up icked the files to use, went to bed and...
Hi Gary, ... It is hidden in the current version (entropy based dark optimization) but the behaviour with DSLRs is - how to say it nicely? - sub par. Anyway,...
Thanks Luc, I took all my darks at night in my observatory, so the temp shouldn't be that different to imaging. I suspect I'll have to take a Winter set,...
Can anyone suggest the optimal color settings for a canon 350d in the Raw/Fits DDP settings? I usually use something like: red 1.9 Green 1.0 blue 1.25 However...
Hi Gary, red scale = 1.9 and blue scale = 1.25 are exactly like what you are usually using. However it comes on top of any camera or automatic WB if you have ...
Hi Luc! What settings are you using now after modding your 350D? Just curious, cos I've also a modded model (Baader Filter). In addition, any hints what WB to...
Hi Uli, Just 1.0 everywhere and I leave Auto and Camera WB unchecked. The balance is now not to off so it is easy to deal with it in post processing. In fact...
Hi Luc, Could you build something in, so that you can see how large the custom rectangle is? Or/and define the custom rectangle like x1,y1 by x2,y2. It would...
I took a photo of a white paper in daylight for a "manual WB" on my modded (Baader filter) EOS 350D, and check Camera WB in deep sky stacker. Sky background is...
Hi Eelko, You will have part of this in the next release ;-) At least the possibility to change a custom rectangle and know its size. Clear skies, Luc...
Hi, last night I took a decent set of shots of a faint galaxy. When trying to stack I again ran into my two dreaded hotpixels next to each other. One a bit...
Hi Sander, First of all, did you take Dark, Flat and Bias frames as well? If so, then all I can think of is to find the hotpixel in your Info.txt file and...
Hi Eelko, I did take darks but no flat and bias frames. Part of the issue is that temperatures vary quite a bit from night to night and I don't yet have a ...
Hi Sander, If it's only detected as one star among many, DSS will reject it anyway. A real problem occurs when only a few stars are detected. A solution is to...
Hi Sander, Sorry, I didn't see your answer to Eelko before writing my previous reply. In fact you only need one dark frame exhibiting the hot pixels to remove...
Hi Luc, thanks for your interest in this issue! I will have to experiment with creating my own dark frames. Haven't tried that yet. I will report back. Sander...
Hi Luc, I had trouble creating a meaningful dark frame artificially. I think you need better FITS editing skills than I possess right now to do that. Last...
Hi Sander, To create the dark you can do the following: - using any image editor (Photoshop, PaintShop Pro,...), create an image of the good size. It doesn't...
Bonjour Ludo, ... sur ... C'est dans la prochaine version. C'est déjà codé et cela fait gagner un temps fou. Bien entendu c'est transparent. ... Normalement...
... bonsoir luc, bon j'étais presque certain de mal me faire comprendre. je reformule! Etape 1: soit une série d'image "essai1.cr2, essai2.cr2, ...", on...
Bonjour Ludo, ... J'ai effectivement compris. En fait DSS ne créé par les fichiers .reg.tif (c'est juste une option mais il n'en a pas besoin), mais sinon si...
... salut, pour les fichiers intermédaires, j'avais bien compris que cela était optionnel ;) c'est par ce que j'ai aussi bien compris de leur intérêt que...
