Software question

Posted By Thomas V Davis

I've not used Mira. Maxim v4 is a very nearly complete platform for processing. Good alignment routines, sigma combine, image reduction, curves, many good-to-excellent filters including DDP and UM. Good color processing as well.

WO 80 Megrez fluorite apo vs. Tak Sky 90?

Posted By Thomas V Davis

Hi,

I have a WO Megrez 80 triplet APO. I mainly use it as a guide scope, but I also use it for occasional daytime (birding) and astro imaging. The contrast is excellent. Color correction is perfect to my eyes. The contruction is superb. I do not have any experience with the Tak 90. I highly recommend the WO APO.

Nice images. Some dust motes are present. These should come out easily with flats.
