Format file tif

#1

Post by raurgo »

Hello everyone.
Last night I did my first deep sky session with M8, it looked gorgeous. The files have tif format and the photos come out monochrome, how can I make them color? What did I misconfigure?
I can't upload the original tif file, too large

Tif will do that. You can get colour back by downloading PIPP.

https://pipp.software.informer.com/download/

In the 'Input options' tab, you check 'Debayer Monochrome Frames'. Choose your debayer pattern under 'Colour Debayer Options' (usually RGGB, but if you get funky colours, try others).

After exporting, you should now have colour images again.
