No, Jeff is right, his method is better but more laborious. If you go by the histogram in the back of the camera it is not accurate. The in-camera jpeg is...
I got the 30 day trial of Gradient Xterminator to check it out. Dave could you point me as to where to get started with the plug-in. I've tried it several...
Hi Bob. I use the online tutorial at http://www.rc- astro.com/resources/GradientXTerminator/tutorial.html and it works just great for me. Dave might be able to...
It is very easy to use but its a little sparse on documentation (like none). What you must do is load the image in photoshop and select only the areas which...
Once again Jeff is right. There is a very nice Gradient Xterminator tutorial on Russ Cromans website. ... the ... experiment ... job ... ones ... point ... of ...
I posted the newest rendition to my Veil. There is over 4 hours of data now. It looks over processed after uploading but it prints out real well. I took Jeff's...
Jim, Nice shot. I did notice that the data in this shot as well as when I was playing with your RAW data that the data on the left side of the histogram is cut...
Bob, Thanks for the advice!!! I went back and converted a couple of the RAW files with the Canon program and there is a BIG difference. I'm going to play...
Was that the big "I told you so?" I remember the discusion awhile back, but IP seemed so much easier as it was automated. I still stand behind IP for...
Hope I don't start a controversy here but I'm not sure I agree with the comments that IP clips data during raw conversion and Photoshop CS2 is better. I've...
Here is another interesting link I found on the subject: http://www.clarkvision.com/imagedetail/raw.converter.shadow.detail/ ... with ... Photoshop ... is ... ...
All I have been fooling around with the IRIS software package for post processing astro images. It seems to have a lot of capability and is free but before I...
Jim and Bob, If you contact Mike Unsold at mike@... , and offer to send him a RAW file and a good and bad conversion, he will probably try to fix the...
I have joined the ImagesPlus Yahoo group and I'm looking into the problem now. As Dave was saying about the discussion on that group, it is quite in depth. And...
Hehe. . .no "I told you so's". . .but yea, I did :) :) Actually, IP is better for very bright objects, but it definitely clips off the dim stuff. An you are...
Dave, I'm not knowledgeable enough to do a scientific analysis of the difference, here's all I know: When I convert an image in Photoshop (turning off all the...
I'm actually going to try to do a more "scientific anlysis" of a good shot with TONs of fainy nebulosity to create a more data on this. . . I'd also ask if...
Well, I just did a pixel by pixel comparison of a wide field image of M17 and there is effectively no difference between IP and Photoshop in terms of dim...
Jeff, Thats good to hear, as it agrees with some tests I've done. The histograms look very different for CS2 and IP right after RAW conversion, but after...
Dave, Yea, it's tricky business and I really do think that the "problem" I have with IP isn't the software, it's my knowledge of the software. Oh well! ...
Woah, very nice. And you will be entering a whole new league in imaging with that camera! Has an STL11000 ever been to TDS before? Dave ... I have ... well! ...

Scott, I have used IRIS for a few years for a variety of operations. It does handle fits files bit strangely at times since it uses 16 bit signed format...
Hi Jeff. Are you getting the new class 2 that just came out or are you getting a class 1? BTW, I think Jay Price has a STL-4020CM (one-shot color). On the IP...
Joining this tread late but I have a few comments. Dave Goodin wrote: ......... In fact, its not easy to get CS2 to convert without doing stretching,...
Dave, I would be happy to schedule an IP tutorial at an AISIG meeting. We have September covered. In October, we could go to John's house and hear his...
Kin, Just a suggestion for scheduling John's Presentation. I know that the facility at MTRP is not available for the AISIG for a few months in the winter,...
