OK to answer a question that was Pm’ed to me and probably someone else may wish to know?

The scopes used were a 127ED that had the Baader Solar Wedge on it using both DMK41 and DMK51 video cameras – this was used for white light shots. The Ha shots were with a Lunt 60mm in single stack mode with both the DMK41 and DMK51.

All of the panels or images were captured with a 600 frame grab to make one image, of which the best 60 frames were used to be stacked to make one image, there are in total of 1732 images used in the animation.

To create the full disk solar images the panels that made them up were taken with either camera – but the panels were stacked in Autostakkert2 then taken into Photoshop to crop off the outer “rough” edging then saved. These were then put back into Photoshop and combined using photomerge being very carefull to select the pieces that make up the disk in order (doesn’t matter which way but they have to be sequential) the combined, then merged all layers then crop to suit. This is then taken into Registax6 and wavelets applied, saved then hop back into photoshop. Then do what you want……

Hope that helps
