Simple Pixinsight Tutorials

[garymck]

Hi,

a couple of really good, simple Pixinsight tutorials are here:

http://www.alexastro.com/Alex%20Home%20Page/Articles/Articlesindex.html

There is one for OSC, and one for LRGB

As a newbee to PI these were just what I needed to get going. Blew me away with my first ever result on a test set of images taken with my new ASI071 Pro...

cheers
Gary

Hey Gary,

This looks really interesting ..... will have to give them a try.

I struggle to find the time, or get my head around processing, so like you, this might be just right.

Good find.

Happy New Year :thanx:

That's a pretty good tutorial to get started with PI.

Those look great Gary. I've also used

and

Harry's Astroshed was particularly good.

The Light Vortex Astronomy set of tutorials is great for beginners and pros. Very easy to follow along with even if you don't understand whats going on. There's even a workflow tutorial I think (or used to) which helps beginners understand what sort of processing steps are needed and where in the processing workflow they belong.I was able to use some info from LVA to improve my own workflow when I first encountered the site. Just run through a tutorial or two with your own data and I'm sure most people will gain something. The are great tutes, not perfect or best processing approaches in every stage, but plenty of well described steps for anyone to learn from to improve what they do if they are willing to learn.
