lukomatico | Astrophotography Made Quick & Easy - SharpCap Pro Live-Stacking Demo and Basic Tutorial! @lukomatico | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
This is a long video so don't be afraid to use the timestamps, for anyone watching the whole thing though then please enjoy, I've left it unedited during certain parts on purpose to show what it's actually like using the program so I don't give unrealistic expectations to someone just starting out! :-)

So, join me for a nice easy session of Live-Stacking astrophotography, I take you through a basic session and usage of SharpCap Pro while I photograph a selection of DSO's all in one night!
