N.I.N.A. VS Sequator

NINA - controls my entire rig and run my capture sequence (also interfaces with PHD2 for autoguiding). In theory I just have to push one button and my scope should run all night taking pics of various objects. It's got a very active discord for troubleshooting, etc. Source: 10 months ago

Yeah its a remote desktop software. I use NINA to control everything. https://nighttime-imaging.eu/. Source: about 1 year ago

Sorry. N.I.N.A. Is the PC software that controls the mount and camera (and can control more) when taking astrophotos. I tell it what I want to image in the sky and it points the telescope in the right direction and takes the number of pictures I tell it to. Https://nighttime-imaging.eu. Source: about 1 year ago

This video of the comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) was taken on the morning of 2023-01-15 between 3:00am and 6:30am. The comet was 28 degrees above the horizon at the start of the sequence, and rose to an altitude of 66 degrees at the end of astro-dark. The sequence consists of 53x90s exposures taken with an 8in f5 Newtonian reflector sequenced using Nighttime Imaging in Astronomy (https://nighttime-imaging.eu/). Each... Source: over 1 year ago

You can stack images if you want a cleaner result. https://sites.google.com/site/sequatorglobal/ is a good easy to use option. Can also do panoramas or both. Use something like stellarium to find something you want to photograph. clearoutside.com can help with weather and moon phases. Make sure to shoot when there isn't any moon light. https://www.lightpollutionmap.info/ can help finding dark locations. Photopills... Source: almost 2 years ago

If you are a windows user, you can also use the program sequator (https://sites.google.com/site/sequatorglobal/). It will line up the images for you, and you can then do post processing in photoshop to improve whatever you need to to get the colors and images right. You can also add in dark images to remove camera noise. Really sweet program for night photography. Source: almost 2 years ago

It's 30 x 15s exposures at 1600 ISO, all stacked in Sequator, which is free software that tracks stars and allows you to accurately stack images despite the stars moving. There was a little editing afterwards, but nothing major, the stacking does most of the work. Source: about 2 years ago

I recommend you test your star tracker mount to see how good/bad is the periodic error, etc. One example of how to test: Https://philhart.com/content/star-adventurer-review#:~:text=Performance,minute%20period%20of%20the%20worm. Then you can do some math: if my tracker error is X arcseconds, and my camera pixel size is Y microns...I can use a lens of Z focal length and only have star trailing of W pixels. (And...

What you can also do, is take many pictures and stack them using a free software like Deep Sky Stacker or the simpler and also free sequator . By doing that, this will reduce the noise of the higher ISO and will help you edit your photos better. Source: about 2 years ago
