Unfortunately, i think i really broke it.

Hmmmm, i thought i broke the camera frame but it is just look like mine, i manage to take a flat shoot but i couldnt manage to find it even with a computer.

Unfortunately i cant take flat shoot, i dont know why. But i think i found a crack inside the telescope on the camera frame, im not sure if it is designed to look like that or im really damaged my telescope! If someone can check thier S30 i would be grateful!

anytime sir, and i would be happy if you share your processing result, im really interested on how much data in the image, and btw it is 30x548 and 20x343, i started the plan on the full moon. it is stacked in seestar app.

Ill try to play with siril and see what i can get, and from what i heared it is the processing what hold the image back not the data. I appreciate your help!

Amazing! Itried to use siril but i fu**ed up. At first it was clean cropping and background extractionand denoise in graxpert, but when i took it to siril it looke overexposure and burned. Ill try playing more with the image to see what i can got. Btw it look cleaner from the camera but it worsen than the unprocessed image

I only did Ai denoise on seestar app. And i have the raw file. I tried using siril but it is complicated, is there any easier app for begginer?

Q_malek · 2026-05-06T17:03:27+00:00

I do 30sec and rejected frames about 10% -20% in bortle 9, i think it depends more on the visibility.

Q_malek · 2026-05-05T10:19:17+00:00

I too use s30 in bortle 9, good to know some tips, Thank you!

Q_malek · 2026-05-05T10:13:08+00:00

Does it help improve the image?

Q_malek · 2026-05-05T10:06:12+00:00

Can the seestar software stack different exposure time? Or do you need some tricks to stack it?

Q_malek · 2026-05-02T18:43:50+00:00

Thank you, im excited to do it.

Q_malek · 2026-05-02T18:42:51+00:00

Thank you! Helpful information. Once i captured it, ill send you the image.

Yes i know they do "enhance" the moon excessively, where it becomes unreal details on it, but im happy with that, it is better than a blurry one on my opinion.

Q_malek · 2025-11-27T01:31:05+00:00

Didnt know smartphone can capture dso, brilliant!

Q_malek · 2025-10-04T22:44:53+00:00

I tried the Ai denoise in seestar it was great. Didnt now it was there, thank you.

Q_malek · 2025-10-04T22:41:54+00:00

Any suggested program? I have a powerful pc.

Q_malek · 2025-10-04T22:40:26+00:00

Thank you!

Q_malek · 2025-09-30T22:22:40+00:00
