Wow these files are big compared to DSI II files!
This is first light tonight using an MPCC on the 12"
Newt and the QHY-8/ homemade GEM.
I now get almost full frame illumination (I think)
and it shows the extent of the typical fast Newt
coma.
The colour balance is wrong here but I did do a sky
background auto-adjust. No sharpening has been applied here,
seeing is average to bad and the gully breezes are gale force.
Excuses
I have a collimation issue too!
Edit:
Question for the QHY-8 gurus:
Do you guys capture in RAW FITs with these OSCs and process
as Raws minus Raw darks etc
OR do you capture in RGB FITS and RGB Darks?
The processing regime last night took AGES to do just 35 frames.
I did this:
RAW capture ---> square debayer minus debayered darks--->stacked.
Comments and suggestions welcome.
