Comments

Even four years after they were made they still provide a great deal of valuable insight! I did find that many of the adjustments in the final couple of steps were not observable in the videos. Could be my eyes or the in the video itself. I look forward to performing these same steps myself where I am sure I will see the changes.

Adam ... in Part 2 of this tutorial you say in the section about "muredenoise" point to the settings of GAIN and Gaussian Noise where you say that you explain how to calculate these values for a particular camera in some sort of previous "fundamental section". Can you please point me to where this might be? I have a Moravian G2 camera and currently don't know how to work out these values for my camera :-) Regards Mike

Hi Mike.... yeah that is referring to my PixInsight Fundamentals course on my website (AdamBlockStudios.com ). This lesson has more than one audience. However, in Pixinsight just look under MUREDenoise. There is an additional feature that will calculate it for you with two flats and two biases!!
