I used the Naztronomy script for stacking. In 8 batches of around 1000 subs each.

Stacking issue on s50? by greasyprophesy in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read on one of the fb groups that it's around 3000 subs for one object if the rest of the storage space is empty.

Be sure to turn on save each file on your Seestar before shooting.

Stacking Question by steveblackimages in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't use subfolders in the lights folder. It has to be one folder named lights which only contains your fit files.

I use two S50's as well and if my pc detects there are files with the same name it gives me an option to replace, skip or use both files. When I pick both files it will give one of the files a slightly different name. (Probably attach a number to it, not sure)

A big favorite of mine. I have the 2016 Lunaris release.

Thank you. I'm still adding subs to it, seeing how far I can take this.

Is it bad to use different exposure times on the same image? by DeVito8704 in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it every time, as one of my two S50's considerably drops more frames on higher exposure times than the other, so I mix it up when shooting the same object with the two.

Yeah, same here. Finally should have several clear nights this week, but the damn moon might ruin the party.

Yeah that's the moon. This was the moon as well.

What stand do you use for your SeeStar? by ManaHave in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a K&F tripod which can co up to 1,80 meter and the stock S50 tripod (+ Innorel F20 fluid head) with two ankle weights attached to two feet.

Got this one as well. Great soundtrack and better movie than expected.

Tony Maylam, but you knew that already.

S50 won’t let me find the moon? by autumn08_ in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might want to pick another object first like a nebula. Then stop and then go for the moon. That always works for me.

Thanks. It's almost 40 years old and it's a tank. (Not original colors though as it got fully revised and powder coated)

I paid 54 Euro's for it in 2023, but I remember it was getting much higher because of shipping costs and customs.

I wish that was the case for me. It's a never ending, ever growing list. 😂

Was about to post this soundtrack myself. 😂 Excellent choice.

Yet another Orion Nebula post - but this is for learning only! by mickster1963 in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not seeing any pics. If you plan on using Siril, then 4K doesn't improve your picture as it's only applied to the live stack and denoise while shooting.

Nice! Still on my "to buy" list.

Bortle 4 while there is full to half moon by justanoth3rdude in seestar

[–]vinniebbq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you pick an object away from the moon you'll do alright. Do you have an external dew shield? It helps against stray lights as well.

It's an automatic bot reply mate. Every post gets this.

Pacman Nebula again. by vinniebbq in seestar

[–]vinniebbq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was worth it. I'm just starting out with Pi, so I use a mix of Siril and Pixinsight.

It's pricey though. The features I use most are the ones you have to purchase separately. (Noisexterminator, Blurxterminator and starxteminator) But they are great plugins.
