As I am just starting my solar journey today, this was really helpful. This part of astrophotography uses a lot of programs that I am not familiar with in DSO imaging. I plan on using the same workflow with sharpcap, autostakkert, and affinity. Thanks so much and clear skies.

Thats the best on YouTube! Thank you so much for sharing. Just getting into solar AP & this really helps!

Thanks for sharing a very informative & well presented tutorial. There are so many options & you have helped narrow down the scope to demonstate what options work best for both WL & Ha images.

Thanks so much for the great tutorials on both capturing and processing the images

Thanks. Very good tutorial I appreciate that you are using Affinity for your processing as I am new to the hobby and went with Affinity for my self and this is the first in depth video I have come across with it being used. Very nice images.

Very good tutorial! A lot of fine techniques. And Affinity is quite new for me. Great replacement for Photoshop in the case of astronomical imaging.

Thank you ! Excellent instruction video.

New to solar imaging…most all of the videos I’ve watched show taking 3 sets of images (surface, prominence and flats) but on all the post processing videos this tidbit is omitted. What is the process for this, or did I miss something.
Thanks, really enjoy your videos!

Great video especially for new solar imagers. Can you share a safe link to ImPPG

[astromatz]

Now this is a straight forward video with lots of helpful tips. I like the part with Imppg most. It was kind of a mystery to me - until now ;-) Thanks an subscribed! Do you do timelapse of the sun?
