Re: Second attempt with the SeeStar

You can process Seestar images using PixInsigth. I usally correct the gradient (GraXpert) then I use BluxXterminator and finally NoiseXterminator. https://youtu.be/_-YDYtfp83Y DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING TUTORIALS | Pedro RE' SEESTAR S50 PixInsigth - M42 45 Min https://pedroreastrophotography.com/ http...

To centre the image you have to move the + sign on your screen (atlas). You have a rectangle for the scope and another for the target. Just move the target rectangle and there you have it.
