Isn't the view from the top cool? ;o)
I used to use registax also. Not bad compared to what was available
at the time. But that time was years ago!
I'm going to go see if it's cleared up at all out there...

Hi Group,
Thanks to Milton I've just got my new Image Source DMK21AF04 working
and have had a little play using a nice zoom c mount lens I acquired
years ago. Although I thought that things looked complex when reading
the Help.pdf when you actually start playing it's really intuitive.
I've been a long-time user of a Philips ToUcam, K3CCD tools and
Registax and these apps. have a steep learning curve. Cobbled to that
having to contend with bloody Windows as well - "Your Norton's Virus
software has expired" just as you are acquiring and focussing the
target "Lord give me strength".
Some of the features though made me LOL - the camera has some dust
bunnies on it (a bit bad for a new camera) so I had a play with the
Flat Field function! it's LIVE for goodness sake how cool is that..
yes and other features too like the histogram stretch. Also it is so
fast in stacking, Registax takes forever. The processing seems so
much more controllable and wide ranging than Registax. The whole
application is streets ahead of the Windows stuff and all in one
package.
Watch this space I reckon some good stuff is on its way.
Best decision I've made in my hobby for years based on this trial
A very happy Ray Byrne
1:27am and I'm still going to have a further play
