Correction: 17:13 I mean focal length of your TELESCOPE (not your camera). Sorry for that! Please also watch my first Beginner Pixinsight Tutorial video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r5mcY6x6npeYgoE.html

I have learnt more in 2 session on your channel about PI then I have since I got PI a year ago !! 🙂 I have subscribed and need to slowly go though these again as the masking is a problem for understanding and visualisation not the actual steps :-) thanks !

Thanks so much for you kind comment. I#m so happy that my video(s) has been useful for you. Thanks also especially for subscribing. 👍🏼 Yeah, masking is really difficult sometimes and needs some time..but it's also really helpful and personally I think it's good to invest some time sometimes. I'm planning to do more PI tutorials in the future. Hope you will like them as well. 😊 Clear skies and thanks again!

Your comment made my day. Thanks so much for your kind words. THIS is exactly why I'm doing videos - this means a lot to me. So great that you're happy with your results after your first steps in Pixinsight. 👍🏼 If your are interested how to get those star catalogues (for image solving 17:51) please also watch my first Pixinisght tutorial. (If you have narrowband data or will have in the future: I will release a new video this Saturday (part 2) in which I will show the principle on how to add Ha and OIII data to your already processed image.) - Thanks again & clear skies. :)

@@tullyfisher I'm more than sure!) Photoshop allows you to work even with the infrared range, the only limitation is the digital limitation raw a file from which it is possible to extract only what is recorded; other nuances will appear when you delete the parameters of the scanning sensors and, accordingly, the parameters raw bit depth and frequency range and resolution

I can not really comment on that since I never worked with Photoshop for astro image processing. I'm really happy with Pixinsight. There are great plug-ins, it's a dedicated astro program and I only have to pay once for the software. If you are happy that great 👍🏻. cs
