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
