A brilliant tutorial that makes great and effective use of many of the cool, new, tools. Direct, and to the point in your usual inimitable style! 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾!!

[@easyastroimages5818]

:) thanks a lot!! Appreciate the words ! I try to keep it flowing because these videos can get lame real quick

[@frankm81m82]

FYI, in the LRGB combination tool you need to move the saturation slider to the left to increase saturation, it’s counter intuitive buts that’s how it works

[@easyastroimages5818]

ah ok..ill play with that..appreciate the advice!!

[@setiv2]

Great tutotial! Love seeing all the scripts come together!

[@easyastroimages5818]

Thanks a bunch!! More to come

[@rocketcityastro]

Just got into pixinsight and i love you scripts and cannel

[@easyastroimages5818]

@@rocketcityastro he is the man!! just hit 2K subs!!

[@KJRitch]

I don't use Pixensight but enjoyed following the workflow and seeing the results.

[@easyastroimages5818]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Mr77pro]

You don't have to reset the CUDA stuff every time you upgrade anymore. Russ from RC Astro did some more magic and made a repository that does it for you! Super easy

[@easyastroimages5818]

Ah well I guess I’ll be testing that. I had to update the tensorflow file only during the latest platform update so it was easy to do.

[@speppino]

Awesome man. This is pretty much my workflow, except that Convolution step that I may have to try as well. Thanks for the tip.clear skies

[@easyastroimages5818]

Thanks. I was def a little heavy handed in that step and it had effects down the line. Next time I wouldn’t blur as much I don’t think or leave a little more crunch in that lumanince image

[@user-nd3sj1rr4l]

Really enjoyed your video! some cool new tools and I just downloaded the Seti astro stuff so will play around. One suggestion you may like - in Photoshop, the Topaz Noise reduction tool is imo way better than noise exterminator. It's almost a miracle. I love the lum trick - I will try that, thanks for your video!

[@easyastroimages5818]

Awesome thank you so much. I hear that lum trick works even better in photoshop I really want to try that one !!

[@user-nd3sj1rr4l]

@@easyastroimages5818 ironically I don't know how to do that in PS lol. the tool I love is Topaz Denoise - not the "new" one but the "old" one which works AMAZING -you'll never use Noise X again

Excellent work Chad!

Thank you kindly!

Thanks. Very helpful.

No problem. Th anks for stopping by

Perfect !!!

Thank you so much !!

Like chalk and cheese. I really need to get another setup for my move to Bortle 3 skies!! Great to see you back. Keep up the great work 👍

[@easyastroimages5818]

lol. Thanks a lot

[@raymondfreeman3660]

Thanks Chad for this great video showcasing some of the latest tools now available in Pixinsight. FYI the LRGB Combination tool settings for Lightness and Saturation are counterintuitive. The 0.65 setting you applied for saturation would have actually reduced it. 😮 Try it on the Lightness setting and you'll see.

[@easyastroimages5818]

Ok. Yeah I agree. My photoshop version was light years better lol thanks for the help

[@MJ12GRAVITON]

Thanks!

[@easyastroimages5818]

You bet!

Anyone else jump at 0:16 when the cat's tail seemingly appeared from nowhere?! 😬 No? Just me then, gotcha.

Where can I find Bill's SCNR_Green_V6? Great work by the way!

[@easyastroimages5818]

Awesome thanks a lot. If you go to his channel. Anotherastrochannel he has links to all the latest on his video descriptions

[@dman9405]

Fantastic video! Do you use filters when you want to capture dark nebula and dust?

[@easyastroimages5818]

Sometimes. I did use a basic idas lp filter just to take the edge off.

[@AndrewBennett-qb8ye]

Hi Chad Great Video on the latest tools. Its great you are looking at getting back to Astro at least with a cut down set of kit from last year. The Link to the shared google drive data says its no longer available. Do you plan to reshare so folks can process along ?

[@easyastroimages5818]

Hmm. It should be there. I will have to check when I get home. That’s very weird ??

[@AndyBennett-e3x]

@@easyastroimages5818 Hi Chad. I still can't access the data for the Dark Shark as it always says that the shared folder is in the owners trash. I can send you a screenshot if required. Your Crescent folder share appears to work fine. i just wonder if anyone else has this problem.

[@easyastroimages5818]

@@AndyBennett-e3x i moved all data into one share drive now so it should be all in there. i fixed the link in all videos since the dark shark video and for the future..LMK if its ok!!

[@mrkutube]

Great video! Can't find the LDN1235 data on the Google Drive you have shared.

[@easyastroimages5818]

Dang ok. I’ll add it tonight when I get home. Must have not made it public

[@yervantparnagian5999]

Gorgeous image. What scope and time integration were you using for this?

[@easyastroimages5818]

25 hours. Redcat 51. Zwo 2600osc

[@yervantparnagian5999]

That latest Redcat is on my list for my 533MC Pro

[@easyastroimages5818]

@@yervantparnagian5999 I loved my red cat. They’re definitely some quirks when it comes to mounting things and getting the whole set up to just fit properly the newer might help some of that out. I definitely would recommend adding a few dovetails to the bottom of it to raise it up a little bit, so you have more clearance when it points towards Zenith, it was the last scope that I owned and used here on the channel and I took my best images ever with it and the 2600. The 533 is still an amazing camera but I would never hesitate to recommend a 2600 or scoring a used one for not much more than the 533 unfortunately bigger sensors is just always better, especially with those wide boys.

[@yervantparnagian5999]

@@easyastroimages5818 Thanks very much for the detailed response. It's certainly appreciated. Keep up the great work.

[@nak7714]

Sorry but the stretch was too much. It looks totally overprocessed.

[@easyastroimages5818]

thanks for stopping by

[@TenThousandTigers]

I think the whole point was to demo just how far you can push it with these new tools. Job done!
