For optimum RAW frame capture, MaxDSLR will directly download raw
images from the camera, and save them in FITS format. Raw frames are best because
they have higher bit depth, have not been compressed, and have not been debayered
(converted to color). This is the optimum format for dark frame and flat field
correction, and provides the highest dynamic range.
Sequencing allows you to take multiple frames at different exposures
times and different ISO settings. This can be used to optimize detection of both
bright and faint objects in the field.
MaxDSLR supports popular shutter control cables, to allow for
longer single exposures. Stacking longer individual frames results in lower
overall read noise, producing deeper images faster.
What about RAW frames saved on the camera's flash card? No problem!
MaxDSLR reads RAW frames from popular DSLR cameras.
Once the images have been aquired, MaxDLSR provides a complete
suite of processing tools. Batch process all your exposures for dark and flat
calibration, conversion to color (Debayer), etc. Then stack the images with
optional auto-alignment to produce the highest quality image.
