Hi Adam,OK, perhaps .7 for saturation for this camera. But the n3486 2x2 data goes to .99; and more than 8 are .98 and above. I really doubt any of this is affecting anything in the processing, but it does not come full circle for me. I agree you re…

Adam,Your web server service is very fast to here (HK). I downloaded the ngc2486 data again. Typical speed was 350 to 400Mbps which is about 90% of my external USB HDD speed. Maybe took 5 seconds. Roger

Thanks. My primary learning source will be your website, not YT.

In today's world it is not easy. For future, you can easily trademark any brand you create, and copyright your videos.My story.... About 15 years ago I developed MP3 sunglasses similar to Oakley's, but my own design. I paid a company in China to do …

Adam,I was referring to this link, near bottom of page:https://www.mastersofpixinsight.com/workshops. Hopefully that is the same one they apologized for.Roger

Thank you. You are very kind.Roger

After my re-checking, in your processing of Cosmic Canvas NG3614, 3rd video at 16:30 you excluded the galaxy. (You never mentioned nebulosity.) I looked at the gradient graph during my processing with and without the galaxy excluded. The gradient li…

Josep,Hi, I really had fun learning from Adam and using your data set. Just thinking of the data from your scope (vs my little 4" refractor with CMOS color camera) gave me a big smile from the beginning. I really wanted to do a good job.After I went…

Yes, both Fund and Hor....When I started you estimated about 60 hours videos. I know you have worked hard this year extending your range, and sharing your experience. I especially like your passion and dedication. I can feel it in the videos. That i…

After subtract data (-38GB), Video = 36GB and I count (only)338 Videos totaling 106 hours. You definitely deserve a rest! Roger

Yes, that is the reason! All those data files! :D I recheck later!

Per his website he had 34 hrs data taken in March/April 2020; CCD Stack + PSNo ouch needed! And if we had all his 'good data' then we would not learn as much. So I think your tutorial's data set was perfect for our learning.

Apparently Josep has much better processing skills than we do, or a much better data set with his recent M51 APOD.

Thanks for your comments.Well I was really shocked to see the red data compared to blue or to green. MLT does make it have more detail, but it may be different detail than the detail if focus were good.I am also wondering just the opposite... why t…

You are doing the hard work to make the videos, not me. So Thanks to you! I was thinking to do the STF auto stretch on the first image, then drag this first STF to the second image without re-auto stretching. Roger

My experience with the NSG1.3 is that the output NWEIGHTS vary a lot more than I expected. My reference best gradient image was 1.0. The highest was 3.5, and the lowest was .36. That is almost 10x range. I had 100 light polluted images over 5 nights…

Adam,For me, I did not criticize the data quality. Taken for what the purpose of the Fundamental Workflow videos it demonstrates the usage and workflow very well. And the final result is great in my opinion. So I actually think the data quality is q…

Paul,January was awhile ago. Did you finish M51? I am also working on this downloaded M51 data. I found all the same files that Adam opened in the video looked the same as the video. Even the same (bad) files that would not open had errors and woul…

Hi Adam,Above I incorrectly wrote: "Previously, in April/May I ran WBPP (2.0?) on the same raw frames (at 460mm FL) and clicked distortion correction in Image Registration popup. I had good registration and as I recall no distortions. I am sure I …

Hi,Once I got used to right clicking and downloading it was no problem. I suggest not doing anything that can possibly increase the ease of someone posting/stealing the videos. It is Adams knowledge, experience, and tons of his hard work to make th…
