Do you use Registax or other software?

CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

Do you use Registax or other software?

Post by mrngbss »

Hi,

I saw the photo taken of Jupiter using the Toucam. When you said it was a photo taken, is it a one shot photo, or a stacked video clip using Registax or similar software?

What other software are there available that works like Registax?

Thanks.

Dear Friend,

There is another software that you can use for image editing in astrophotography. I use that software for imaging only. But you can check it out.

Free download available with key provided!

Here is the link.

Hi,
I think most people use Registax for planetary image processing and Iris for deep sky image processing. Both are freeware.

Registax: http://registax.astronomy.net/index.html
IRis: http://www.astrosurf.com/buil/us/iris/iris.htm

Also, Photoshop can also be used, but normally I used it on the image after process by Registax or Iris.

Have a nice day.

Hi,
I think he want to run on Mac... that's why he is looking of this software. IMHO, Registax is a better software.

Have a nice day.
