Stacking Your Astrophotographs in Regim for Mac
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
This video is the second part of a 3 part series that shows you how to take pictures of deep space objects using only a DSLR camera on a static tripod. In this video the pictures of Messier 3 are uploaded along with the calibration frames into the free to download Regim. This software aligns all the images and reduces the noise to create a final more detailed and better quality image for later processing. It is a bit like Deep Sky Stacker for a Mac. The video shows you the steps involved in stacking. At the end the final post processed image of Messier 3 can be seen using this method. For Part 1 of the guide please visit http://www.learnastronomyhq.com/articles/easy-deep-sky-astrophotogra.html which will show you how to take the pictures to use for stacking.

Thanks,Nice video.
DSS no longer works on my laptop.(stacks but no final image to save)
Will try Regim, seems to have a easy User interface.
Thanks again -
This video is old, this no longer works. Not in OSX 10.11.2

After I've selected all my images and dark frames and click "ok" it says that there are "no images for calibration!" I'm not sure what step I'm forgetting but its kind of frustrating. Any solution?

Thank you so much for your video, what a beautiful voice you have. I have a question. I do not know where to find the "darksM3Tiff" file. Is it just a file you created? Or it is part of the Regim program? Why did you call it dark, or what dark stand for in this instance? Let say, I have 5 tiff photos, and i'm following everything you say. I put them into the window called images, but now i'm lost. I do not know what there should be, in the "dark file " you put in the dark section of Regim. thank you :D

Are exposures better or stacking photos to get color image?
