DeepSkyStacker 3.0 Description:

DeepSkyStacker is a free and useful tool for astrophotographers that simplifies all the pre-processing steps of deep sky pictures.

· Registering
· Stacking
· Simple post-stacking processes to quickly view the final result.
· Saving the resulting picture to a TIFF file (16 or 32 bit)

After a shooting night you give all your pictures (light frames, darks frames, offset/bias frames, flat frames) to DeepSkyStacker and you go to bed. The next morning (or is it afternoon?) you can see the result and start post-processing.

DeepSkyStacker 3.0 Features:

· Automatic registration of a set of pictures
· Automatic detection of stars using all the picture area
· Preview of registered stars
· Sub pixel registration
· Automatic derotation
· Automatic creation and use of offsets, flats and darks frames
· Sub pixel alignment and stacking
· Supported bitmaps formats : 8, 16 and 32 bit colour and monochrome TIFF files, 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit colour and monochrome FITS files, JPEG, BMP, PNG
· Native use of RAW files from most DSLRs (CR2, NEF, CRW, ...) without using an intermediate file format (TIFF or other).
· Darks, Flats and Offsets computed from and applied directly to the RAW picture before any interpolation.
· Stacking methods: average, median, kappa-sigma clipping, auto adaptive weighted average, entropy weighted average, maximum...
· Preview of all pictures (including RAW)
· Simple post-processing with RGB levels, luminance curve and saturation adjustments.
· Save the resulting picture to 16 and 32 bit TIFF files with or without adjustments applied.
· Simple and intuitive user interface
· Optimal memory usage: the same amount of memory is required to register and stack 10 or 500 pictures.
· Automatic determination of Darks, Flats and Offsets to be applied to the pictures using ISO speed and exposure time.
· Several methods to optimize the RAW files processing by using the best of the Bayer matrix without interpolating the missing pixels.
· Option to automatically detect hot pixels during the registering process
· Automatic calibration of pictures background for each channel
· Automatic Dark Optimization
· Automatic use of a bilinear or bisquared alignment transformation depending of the number of stars.
· Creation of File Lists to speed up loading of often used files (darks, flats, offsets/bias...).

DeepSkyStacker 3.0 Requirements:

· GDI+ must be installed. If you are not using Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server or Windows Vista, click here to download GDI+ for your platform
(GDI+ is already installed with Windows XP, Vista and 2003 Server)
· Minimum resolution: 1024x768
· Memory requirement: depends of the pictures sizes.
256 Mb for small pictures (less than 1000x1000 pixels)
512 Mb for pictures created with a DSLRs like the Canon EOS 350D
Of course, the more the better (It avoids using the swap and speeds up the processes)
· Processor: from an 800 MHz PIII.
