AllSky Issues
Posted: Sat Aug 15, 2020 8:47 am
Am quite new to this and have tried to follow the instructions/tutorials.
Having major issues with hot pixels. I tried using darks, but alas, it's not helped as much as i thought it would.
as you can see - i've a way to go to get the hang of this, so any help/advice is welcome.
