I have always shot video but am not convinced stacking in Registax really improves on a decent single shot - need more images to prove one way or other as am only starting out myself.
Anyone else have a preference on stacking video vs single shots for the moon. For the planets the video stacked in Registax or Autostakkert seems to work really well.

Single shots, zwo cooled mono, lum filter.
It's has been a long time since I did serious Moon stuff..but I like to take single shots rather than video and go thru them and stack the best.
But this was not about getting a good Moon shot ..it was just to get the new scope with the zwo to produce something...anything really...but to show Jeremy that complexity is good I may do one using all 7 filters and see if I can stack each separately with darks and flats ..and 3x drizzle maybe...not sure about that...but I am back in Sydney with the gear so may do some Moon stuff in an effort to sort things out.
There is no place for a finder scope ...so need to fix a finder scope and a guide scope...plus must make a baffled dew tube...you can't take any photos without one.

I zoomed in with sharpcap...maybe 200 times..and it looked like a pancake cooking....almost made me sea sick...I think to do a really good image you need some way to use one shot as a template and add what fits and reject what is not in place... Maybe Registax does that...
Anyways too tired to even in pack the car...
I did not want to come back as I had both piers ready to go in the observatory but my Dad had to go to hospital...damn attention seeker...you would think at 97 he would be over it..but no..I have to worry that he is on the way out...no way..I told him he can't go until at least 105... But he better have a good excuse to leave.
