NGC 3372, Ha/OIII 4-panel mosaic, Argentina/UK collaboration
Many thanks to Leandro for capturing the data and producing the Ha and OIII stacks. The images are a 4-panel Ha/OIII mosaic of NGC 3372 (part of the Carina Nebula). Leandro (@leandro from Argentina) captured the data during March/April 2024, over 16 nights to avoid the moon and bad weather. Leandro ...

Yes with evolving software and my improved processing, I have been able to achieve better results from older data. Always worth revisiting old stuff.

This is worth trying. I have an old ZWO ASI120MC USB2 camera which does not work when connected to a USB3 port but functions correctly when connected via a USB2 port.I could try a USB2 hub to see if that works I guess

Re: Color absent in solar flares- assistance requested
I used to be able to get color images instantly in Pixinsight just by opening a raw file- no debayering needed (up until today) Post, on the internet, an example light frame 'with no debayering needed', together with the Sharpcap capture file and a brief description of the software used/method to p...

Re: Color absent in solar flares- assistance requested
You need to debayer the file first. In PixInsight Process > ColorSpaces > Debayer Once the image is in colour then Process > IdentityTransformations > CurvesTransformation (to taste) Dave Sun-debayer.JPG These are the additional entries added to the FITS header by PixInsight. On my system the conver...

Re: Solar Eclipse Resources
Another link to eclipse imaging with useful background info, including exposure and ISO settings for various stages, at Roger Clark's site: https://clarkvision.com/articles/photograph-the-sun/ Roger's plan on eclipse day is to use 5 DSLR cameras on trackers. Note the use of bracket sequences. Dave

Re: Webcam with exposure longer than 1s?
Jakub I achieved these lunar mosaics with a Sweex webcam https://forums.sharpcap.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=736&hilit=sweex . I took out the front lens, added webcam adapter (eBay) and an IR filter. The 10-panel mosaic came out well given the cost of the hardware. I also adapted a Microsoft Lifecam (...
