Astrophotography: Affinity Photo for Seestar FITS Editing
zhlédnutí 160Před 3 měsíci
This video shows what you can do with your Seestar FITS files using Affinity Photo. The files, stacked FITS, were from 10-20 sec shots made with the automatic telescope called Seestar. The files were kindly sent to me by Chris Gray, who has also made CZcams tutorials on editing Seestar files with Siril. My editing here is a bit on the gaudy side but with Affinity you can color them as you like....

Affinity Photo is a software package for editing photos. Also, astrophotograpy files can be stacked and processed. Files purchased from Telescope Live have been edited by me with AP and are shown here. The astro ability of Affinity is due to the efforts of James Ritson. It is through the use of his free macros that all the editing is possible.

      As I remember, if you click on me at bottom right you come to "advanced" that is where you go to adjust level. Here is something about "enhanced processing" that needs to be clicked. Otherwise the sub light files are not saved. Then they are seen when the cable is connected to computer. I have another CZcams about Seestar. Have a look under "youtube irandar"

    Something I overlooked when making this video: To zoom in more closely to see a galaxy below the text box there are + - buttons. For example, this allows seeing details of Andromeda, which is not possible with only mouse zooming. Also I thought I could set on this web version the field of view FOV. This seems not possible as it is on the mobile version, which has a number of other features, like the control of telescope mounts. Have fun.

No idea why this video has such an insane number of dislikes, other than to say 101 people clearly have an undereducated musical palette. Clarence White is one of the greatest American musicians of any age, and dismissal of his monumental talent and bluegrass music in general as simplistic "hillbilly music" is at once to discount our national musical heritage as well as advertize one's own underdeveloped musical lexicon. But what do you expect from consumers of commercial pop music with its formulaic predictability, incomprehensible contemporary rap and hip hop, and mind-numbingly aggressive heavy metal...RIP Clarence White, a guy who actually played the guitar , you know...with his hands...

    • @irandar
      @irandar Před 4 lety

      No rope would not work, unless you had two people holding it tight on both sides. As the mast is raised (or lowered) the slider, which attaches the boards to the mast moves down (or up). In this way, the mast cannot move to port or starboard. The boards could be very light weight, or even bamboo poles could be used. There is very little force on them. The only force is on the line and forestay running from the bow to the top of the mast. Be very careful to belay this. It is best to have two persons, one belaying the forestay line and one catching the mast as it comes down. Good luck and be careful.

      I used rope with my mast raising & lowering. It must be tied on each side, in line with the mast. I leave just a little slack, so if it's not perfectly in line it won't be put on a bind as it's raised or lowered. I use a come-a-long to raise it, but a winch would be a little easier. I used to use an electric winch with another boat I had, which raised it very quickly.
