I got a Meade DSI recently. Nice camera for the price. I would like to put it on my LX200, but I currently do not have a wedge. Is there any software that...
In the cheap vein, I think that Astrovideo does. It is shareware. However, Astrostax and K3ccd tools do not AFAIK. ... Phil Chambers [ptchamb@...] (S.F....
Rob, ImagesPlus can handle X-Y translation, expansion and field rotation. Works especially well with digital cameras. Also does dark frame, flat frame...

Hi Rob, Yes, I use it. MIRA is very sophisticated and powerful. It does the best job (tightest FWHM) of any of the registration programs. The registration...
Keep in mind that MIRA and other programs can align images that were made without a wedge so that you can stack them, however... *nothing* can "correct" filed...
All, We just posted a new M31 image taken with the FSQ / STL11000 combination on the SSRO website: www.starshadows.com/M31RG.html. It is an LRGB (120:45:45:45...
Hi everyone: Probably a little later today a PEMPro announcement will be sent out on the lists. I just wanted to give people here a heads-up that there is now...
Mike, It will work with the ME but Software Bisque does not expose the software interface to write directly to the mount. Here is what John Smith wrote: PEMPro...
... the bridge ... Ray, Thank you for the kind words. The skies at NMSkies are truly dark and allows for imaging unlike anything I have experienced in the ...
That was what I was afraid of. My first experiments with the Orion ST 120 and EQ-3 mount were not very impressive. I think mainly focus problems. I planned to...
Hi Paul I am confused by your statement. It would seem to me that correcting for field rotation should be pretty trivial. You select 2 points on the picture,...
Hi Phil, The problem is that you have a square field of view in the image. As you take successive images, the center of the image always points at the same...
Yup... it will do that to you. Have you considered doing piggy back with a 35mm camera and a long lens? A 300mm lens can capture some marvelous shots. ...
OK, I think I get it. The problem is that the "corners" dont have the same saturation, not that they are "different". So that would make you want to select...
Isnt there a field-derotator for the LX200? Btw, if you want to try to get decent images without a low-PE drive + autoguider, drift-scan (TDI) imaging looks...
The derotator has a very poor reputation. A wedge seems like the only real solution. This night was my first try at using the Meade DSI on my LX200. I got a ...
We have a new image of the Pleiades up on our website at: http://www.starshadows.com/M45RGJH.html LRGB (60:30:30:30) minutes with 1x1 blue as the luminance...
Love the faint nebulosity that you were able to capture. The dark point needs to go slightly to the right, I think. And the image might benefit from a modest...
... the image might benefit from a modest sharpening. Was it windy, or is the image slightly out of focus. ... Phil, Thanks for the suggestions. We set the...
