Either of those would be fine in iCCD.

Just for clarity's sake. If you stack and align in Astro IIDC using

either 8 or 16 bit image sources, the result is always a 16 bit (Mono

16 or RGB48) tiff.


Internally the intermediate sum data when stacking is always done as

Mono32 or RGB96 (as appropriate for the source), so no data precision

is lost.


HTH..

If the images are 16 bit, you could always use iCCD. It has a mono

routine.

I should probably add a convert 8 bit to 16 bit routine to iCCD. I

may have to do that soon.

Hi All,


I have my new G5 iMac kitted-out with Astro IIDC and everything is  

working great. This computer will be solely for astro imaging use (I  

bought it on eBay for a snip) but I'm stuck with loading Photoshop

on  

it as my current version is an upgrade and I don't know the previous  

versions Reg no.. Is there an app. to do LRGB processing for the Mac  

to assemble my mono images into a composite colour one. I can get  

around this by transferring the files to one of my Macs with PS on  

but it would be great to keep everything on my new Mac which I've  

Christened "Rays Astormachine"


TIA
