Hi people, I'm having trouble opening the Tiff image file with Photshop 7. I have tried saving as integer/rational etc , but all three options are blocked in...
Hi Andy, Basically wrong bit colour depth means that Photoshop 7 is not recognizing the TIFF depth. I am quite sure that it does not handle 32 bit TIFF files...
Hi Luc Took image of M42 6x4min@800iso for cloud nebulocity, plus matching dark frames 6x45sec@800iso for trapezium, plus matching dark frames 1x1/1400@800iso...
Hi Carl, What you see in DSS is obtained from the same image you saved, and what is possible in DSS should be possible in Photoshop. Be aware that in DSS...
Dear Luc, Save on 32 bits for a pixinsight use and save on 16 bits for a Photoshop use is better than save on 16 bits on TIFF and work directly on Photoshop ? ...
Hi Nicolas, ... Photoshop use ... I think so: a 32 bit image has more information than a 16 bit image and is more robust when it comes to strong histogram...

Luc, Sorry about my previous verbose and confusing note. The gist of what I was asking was "why didn't DSS remove the amp glow in my stacks?" However, I think...
Hi Hunter, If you have only 3 minutes dark frames, DSS will subtract them from your light frames even if the exposure time is not matching (hence the warning)....

Hello Again, I noticed that after you select a file and the light frames are in the group box, you can then choose your own reference frame, this also may help...
Hi Andy, Normally the reference frame is the one with the highest score. If you have a lot of drifting or field rotation you may want to select another...
Hunter, and Luc, For what it's worth, I use the in-camera noise reduction feature, on the basis that it is effectively dark frame subtraction at the same ...
Hi Luc & Nicolas Do you use the free ware download of Pixinsight? I downloaded it a few months ago and tried to follow the noise reduction tutorial and it ...
