Any other members using AA6 for guiding and image acquisition?
Interested in your feedback/ comments.
(The new addition of the slit spectroscopy guider set-up seems to work great - ideal if you want to set (and re-set) a guide position at a nominated X-Y position in your frame)
Yep, only camera control, guiding, image calibration, preprocessing and along with PS, post processing software I have ever used, since 2003 ...so I can't compare to anything else but I love it
Mike,
Thanks for the feedback.
I, like you, am a long time user of AA....
It certainly punches well above it's weight, and the developer Fabio listens to the users, hence the spectroscopy enhancement!
I also have Astroart 6. Used it when I had a OSC camera as it was very easy to use. However I stopped using it for acquisition when I went mono plus filter wheel. Having to use scripts to control is cumbersome when other software simply uses a few checkboxes. If the developers had an easy way to automate using filters etc I'd be back to it .....
Hi Ken,
I did have a try of the Obs Manager, but it was still complex. When I compare it with say Maxim where setting up a a sequence is simply a few drop downs and boxes, it was way too much effort. Scripting belongs to the dark ages:-) I like ease of use!
That being said, for one shot color, Astroart is the best and easiest to use I ever found. It is great and still lives on my laptop...
...so I can't compare to anything else but I love it
