Registax and FITS images Archive - Cosmoquest Forum. View Full Version: Registax and FITS images. 2008-Mar-13, 04:16 AM. I am currently saving my DSI II images as FITS files. I thought registax could handle these but it won't load them. I may be doing something wrong but if not, do any of the other reputable stacking programs. Registax - crop your images. In my experience, Registax and similar programs cannot cope with uncropped DSLR images - it would require the allocation of far too much memory. That's why they freeze up. Try cropping the images beforehand. Notice that Registax has place red dots over the image, these are the points that Registax will use to align this frame with the other ones in the video. Now click Align, Depending on the number of alignpoints and the size of the video this process can take a wee while. But once it is complete it is onto step 3. Registax 6 tutorial for that i am about to start getting to grips with registax so this is a really big registax 6 tutorial thanks for posting it. Then my ability tutotial get better stalled. Either move the slider to select the desired number of frames, or type in the desired number. Can't for the life of me find the debayer option on Registax 6? Link to post Share on other sites.

The final step is to process (sharpen) the stacked image produced by the stacking software.

If you open the stacked image with RegiStax 6 you will find yourself on the wavelet tab. RegiStax has several useful tools for sharpening. Something I found very helpful is this by Christophe Pellier.

RegiStax 6 Wavelet Tab – Right Side
In this video I show how to use the Histogram and RGB Balance functions located on the right side of the wavelet tab. I use these to set the color and brightness before doing the wavelet sharpening using the controls on the left side of the wavelet tab. Adobe acrobat pro 11 for mac torrent. I do this first because wavelet sharpening is highly subjective. We apply wavelets while looking at the image on the screen and asking ourselves “How’s that?” I figure I might as well be seeing the proper colors while doing that.
In the video I also point out several quirks of RegiStax. I show how to use RGB Align, Gamma, and color saturation.

Of all the things to learn about planetary imaging sharpening is the possibly the hardest thing to get right. I’m continually learning better ways and I am certain I will improve with more practice.
The wavelet tools in RegiStax are very popular. It seems that everyone uses them and for many people that is all they need. Some people will use other tools such as PhotoShop or AstraImage for further processing.

RegiStax does not come with a user manual. The RegiStax web site has some useful tips to get you started. In the video I show you things I learned by playing around for many hours. Before that I found something that worked and stopped playing. Then my ability to get better stalled. Finally I decided to put in the hours to see what all the controls do and then I was able to again start getting better and better images. Parallax previewer app.
If you’re like I was then this video will give you a head start.

RegiStax is image processing software for amateur astrophotographers, released as freeware, designed to run under Windows,[1][2][3][unreliable source?][4][unreliable source?] but which also runs on Linux, under wine.[1]

Its purpose is to produce enhanced images of astronomic observations through combining consecutive photographs (an image 'stack') of the same scene that were taken over a short period of time. The process relies on the subject (e.g. a planet) being unchanged between photographs, so that any differences can be assumed to be random noise or atmospheric interference.
The stack of images can be in the form of individual consecutive shots or from frames of a movie camera trained on the scene.[5][6] Download twilight new moon hunstu lovers.
History[edit]
Cor Berrevoets (Netherlands) began development of the program about 2001,[7] and it was released on 19 May 2002.[8] This initial release (version v1.0.0) had facilities for stack alignment, grading and selection of the images to be merged, and image enhancement using techniques such as wavelet processing.[9][10] The program was regularly updated by its author and on 6 June 2004 a multi-lingual version was begun (v3) and the program was later available in 15 different languages.[11] To date (August 2017) the latest release is v6.1.0.8 (6 May 2011) which was contributed to by a team of 9 people.[7]
