Convert fit files to tiff or png

#1

Post by ScottD »

Hello,

Last night I went out and took images and live stacked M51, then switched to the beautiful Super Moon. I took many images of the moon, but unfortunately forgot to change the output format. So, all of my moon images are in fit formats. Is there any way to convert these or, is there a program that will read them and allow me to edit them?

I appreciate any help or guidance you can offer.

Scott

Get PIPP https://sites.google.com/site/astropipp ... ut-options

Drag and drop the files to be converted onto the Source tab. Switch to Output Options tab and select SER for output, then Do Processing tab & Start processing button.

Will do Scott.

You can also process the FITS files by selecting all and drag and drop onto the Open button in Autostakkert. The program will analyse and stack. them.
