Hey guys. Thanks for the tips.


I'm using the toucam through a 5 x powermate to increase resolution. I'm normally limiting my captures to around 100 seconds at 10fps, which results in 1000 bmp's. I try to keep the exposure meter at about the 220 mark.

For some reason, registax 5 doesn't open if you put in more frames than that, I get an error message, "path cannot be found".

I got to this processing path by following mikes planteray imaging page, and have modified it. I split the AVI's using Virtual dub, I'm not using PCFE to centre the images, then RGB split to get the images into Red, Blue and Green.

I then process each channel in Registax, using wavelets to sharpen.

From there I open each channel in AI and use Maximum Entropy Deconvultion. I then recombine the RGB image and run either further Maximum Entropy or just adjust brightness and Gamma.

I haven't played with adjusting the edging of the planet or sharpness of the moon as per Mike's instructions. From your comments Trevor, that looks like the next step in this ongoing saga.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Darren
