A note right off the bat on your PI processing. When you load frames into BLINK, you must click the remove all button to remove them from your memory. Just Xing the top of BLINK doesnt do that so those frames stayed loaded in your system memory, slowing all your following processing.

Best To be honest the DWARF2 is a good solution for someone who has a small budget but then I would still recommend doing the process of image editing in programs other than Pixinsight since the purchase is also quite expensive and since the image quality of the DWARF2 cannot be compared with professional telescopes that would be a shame there are programs that can also do this and are free ; Now the explanation you gave was indeed good.

Yes, totaly agree. Siril is free and does pretty well from what I have seen which is what I would recommend for someone brand new. GIMP is another good choice and is not astro specific so it may be familier to poeple already.

I ran into 2 problems. Plate solution failure while stacking. Got solution with software. EZ Soft Stretch turned my image yellow-green.

Hey Robert. Glad you got one solution, I have had that EZS soft Stretch issue occasionally - I believe it is because one of the channels is so strong for some reason. However, a couple of things you can do, 1) just adjust the colors in curves or histograms until they are equal (look good), 2) stretch it the traditional way histogram stretch, or 3) Use Bill Blanchan Stretching methods - They are free ands he has a ton of stuff! - Good Luck

Looking at it again I see now that you have also a darks file in Pixinsight. However, I seem to miss out how you subtract/calibrate the exposures against the darks.

Ugh, how come nobody makes any of these without plugins so those of us on free trials can try it out and see if we want to pay for it.

Thanks for your detailed explanations. I bought a Dwarf 2 recently. What I did not get in your tutorial: Does Dwarf 2 subtract the dark frames automatically or did you do this in Pixinsight?

Yes and No! Haha, For live stacking in the field it does it automaticallyand the final image the dwarf does, it is subtracted. Foe raw exposures which you manually stack it does not so you will have to subtract them when you process it. Good luck.

No! Not at all. I prefer setting up and imaging with a traditional telescoe and such. It does have some uses though such as using it in the daytime for nature videos and images.
