QHY8 in Nebulosity, can only see B&White ??

[BlackWidow (Mardy)]

Tonight is my first light with My QHY8. I have just taken 10 300sec exposures and have got my images. When I open them in FITS Liberator I only see black and white. When I go back into Nebulosity and save them as 16bit Tiff or any other selection I can then open the files in Photoshop but still no colour.. What an I missing and what have I got to do.. Any advice would be a real time save..

You need to debayer in Nebulosity to view the color.

What happens in other programs? Or one I de-Bauer I then save each file and they will be in colour. I want to stack the in deep sky stacker

Go to page 8 of this guide it will tell you what to do. It's called demosaic in Nebulosity.

This guide is probably the best one I have seen showing how to use qhy cameras and nebulosity in terms of workflow from dark, to combining to color conversion. Forget that it's for 9c camera. Same principles apply for yours.
