Astrophotography: Capturing The Butterfly In The Sadr Region, ZWO ASI533MC Pro, ZS61, EQ6 R Pro

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Hi Everyone This is a bit random... Wondering if the final image looks odd, too saturated, over prosessed mayby. Just looked at it on the TV and phone and have a feeling my monitor has lost its calibration as it didn't look great but looks fine on the desk top. If you could let me know please how it looks on whatever your using to watch, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

I also do astrophotography videos and would love to find others to collaborate with... please let me know, as this will help grow our channels and broaden our audience... It's very important to collaborate with others on this platform... please let me know if this is something we can do... we could do a live stream or something together

Hey there Ben! - Loved the light pollution shield haha, high-tech problems require high-tech solutions eh? :D - Regarding gain, when I had a 533 I always used it at 100/70 like you mentioned :-) worked fantastic! Lovely end result mate, looking forwards to more! Clear skies, Luke

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Cheers Luke, Yeh the LED Light is brutal. Amazing what a bit of wood and a brick can do. It's very noticable in images sometimes if I forget to put it up. Im still working it all out with this camera, it's been quite the learning curve!

[@JoesAstrophoto]

Nice video and capture Ben!

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Thankyou very much Joe!!!

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Thank you Sharp Star

Nice job with this Ben I noticed your comment. On my TV it looked a little on the pale side but having said that I rewatched on my phone where I thought it looked fine. I've had the same issue before. I have dual screens at my desktop and they do look different one always looks darker even when I've calibrated.

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Cheers Ollie, Yeh not worried too much mate, I'm just going to keep an eye on it I guess and make sure I have calibrated it right

[@DSOImager]

Looks great Ben! Does not look over saturated to me but maybe a a little over cooked.

[@CosmuzzAstro]

Thanks James. I've just recalibrated the monitor and the image does look different now to how it was earlier. Never mind, may give it a reprocess on a cloudy night. All part of the fun!

[@DSOImager]

@@CosmuzzAstro I've reprocessed all of my images.. sometimes more than once. A few look better.. some look worse, lol. Do you have a site online where you post your images.. like astrobin?

[@CosmuzzAstro]

I'm my own worse critic when it comes to prosessing. Instagram is the only place I post images at the moment. I was thinking about going further a field next year.

[@DSOImager]

@@CosmuzzAstro Found ya on IG and followed :) I'm mine worst critic too... I think its a good thing as long as I don't go too far, lol.

[@CosmuzzAstro]

That has been my problem on many occasions. I've just started following you on IG as well. Thought I already was to be honest, better late than never.
