Combining Datasets From Different Telescopes Using Astro Pixel Processor

2
Award-winning astrophotographer and Telescope Live Tutor Nik Szymanek brings you a useful workflow for creating interesting images. A common question is, "Can I combine datasets from different telescopes?" Nik will show you some of the use cases and methods to achieve this so you can better enhance certain features of your image.

This method can be particularly useful for galaxies, where you can utilize long focal lengths to gather details of a galaxy, and then a fast, shorter focal length refractor to capture faint surrounding features.

Nik, once again thanks for your tutorials. I've been using this technique to put together my 'hybrid' imaging pictures for over 3 years and except for tweaking the settings periodically, it has always worked well. I've used data from up to 5 different sites with 5 different cameras (my own, Telescope Live, other sites, public data like Hubble/JWST, ... ) on an image. It's a powerful tool and blends in with workflows with PI, PS, Affinity, ... .
