Pete,
I'm using
PhD Guiding - simple, effective, uncomplicated. Does what it avdertises (guiding) and does it well
DSLR Focus - imaging software - this works for my Canon 350D but not later models. I like it perhaps because it was the first thing I used but again, it's pretty straightforward. I'll worry about something else when I have a better camera.
Alignmaster - this is new to me but from the several plays I have I think it's essential for alignment. Seems well worth the $16.
EQMOD - again, pretty new to this but I think I'm gunna love not having to rely on the hand controller anymore. Just got a wireless game controller working with it too.
The Sky - planetarium software.
I think that's it for software at the pointy end.
In the backroom I use
Deep Sky Stacker and Registax
Photoshop
And just starting to play with Lightroom.
There's a wide, wide world of software out there. A bewildering variety really. I'm focussing on using what I have before venturing any further.
hope this helps a bit.
cheers
niko
