Teaching students how to use Registax

Hi,

I am going into my Yr 11 Physics class tomorrow to show students how Registax can be used to process AVI's they took of the moon and Saturn last week. When I save the image as either a Tiff it save as about 450kb or as a JPEG it saves as about 26kb. When I open the image in Photoshop it comes up as an image about 5cm x 5 cm. It looks nice but very tiny. When I zoom in it starts to pixelate almost immediately. Is there a way to overcome this with Registax or is it an issue with my Phillips 840 Toucam we were using. I have attached the images the first one unprocessed with the Wavelets and the second with adjustments.

Thanks.

Mark

Hi Mark! You must have a small size set in your capture program (ie 320x240 pixels). You'll need to change it in the settings. You should be able to get a 640x480 pixel image out of the ToUcam.

Cheers -
