I lost my ASTROPHOTOS in the past 😓 THIS could have prevented it - Data hygiene best practices
Cuiv, The Lazy Geek 2024-10-14 | My Patreon: patreon.com/cuivlazygeek My Merch Store: cuiv.myspreadshop.com Important note: this is just ONE step towards good data management! The ideal scenario would be to have physical backups in TWO different places AND a cloud backup - and a RAID setup is cherry on top to ensure the integrity of a data source! I personally use Google Drive to backup my favortie masters to the cloud. Still, I've used this drive a LOT after this video, and it was great to have access to all my astrophoto data even when I was in France :) Synology DS923+ : tinyurl.com/jmydny4h or amzn.to/4d7R6sJ (Ideal for RAID5, RAID6, RAID10) Synology DS223j: tinyurl.com/hzmafk73 or amzn.to/3MODBU2 (ideal for RAID1) Sample 4TB Hard Drive: amzn.to/3MOfYuW Sample 8TB Hard Drive: amzn.to/3XqB87k Synology BeeStation 4TB: bee.synology.com (no data redundancy/RAID) Amazon affiliate: amzn.to/49XTx01 Agena affiliate: bit.ly/3Om0hNG High Point Scientific affiliate: bit.ly/3lReu8R First Light Optics affiliate: tinyurl.com/yxd2jkr2 All-Star Telescope affiliate: http://bit.ly/3SCgVbV Astroshop eu Affiliate: http://tinyurl.com/2vafkax8 ----------------------- My equipment ----------------------- Dwarf III Smart Telescope: bit.ly/3SyChXu Seestar S50: tinyurl.com/3n62hpzx or tinyurl.com/43r5pd6y ZWO ASI2600MC Duo: bit.ly/3M8IkPS (Agena) or bit.ly/3Jti7KQ (HPS) or tinyurl.com/54nkj5n8 (ZWO) ZWO ASI585 MC Pro Camera: bit.ly/3Iwo6y8 (Agena) or bit.ly/4cp1Ofn (High Point Scientific) or tinyurl.com/yc2386cd (ZWO) TOUPTEK IMX571 APS-C Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/mr2yhvcw TOUPTEK IMX585 Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/4y9dz774 OGMA versions for US-based support (use code CUIV on checkout for a small discount!): getogma.com CarbonStar 6" Newtonian: bit.ly/3W7ZFiA Mirror Mask for CarbonStar (designed by me :) ): thingiverse.com/thing:6610187 SW Quattro 150P Budget Newt: bit.ly/3BABCxl Backyard Universe upgrade kit: tinyurl.com/3juwm5sz OCAL Collimator: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmuBKXB or https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dc6JT5B Askar V Modular Telescope: bit.ly/3Imoq2M or bit.ly/3GLuyR8 or tinyurl.com/2h758bvt RedCat51: bit.ly/48hyuVx (Agena) or bit.ly/48pTWXW (HPS) Cable Organizers/Focuser bracket: etsy.com/shop/SmartComponents WarpAstron WD-20 Mount: bit.ly/3wxNbGI ZWO AM5N Mount: bit.ly/3W3TWKe (Agena) or bit.ly/3A0cO4e (HPS) or tinyurl.com/5ft5n9am (ZWO direct) UMi 17 Lite Mount: proxisky.com ZWO EAF Focuser: bit.ly/45agP0Z (Agena) or bit.ly/4avCIcE (HPS) or tinyurl.com/nhfyark8 (ZWO) Antlia ALP-T highspeed filter: bit.ly/42RBR2e SVBony Filters: amzn.to/3yBuQZX Mini Computer (newer version): amzn.to/49XTx01 Flocking paper/Felt paper: amzn.to/3zASgvu or amzn.to/3m94zwa Follow me!

MASTER PixInsight FROM SCRATCH in ONE VIDEO (Really🤯) - LEVEL UP your astro images! + data provided
Cuiv, The Lazy Geek 2024-09-05 | My Patreon: patreon.com/cuivlazygeek My Merch Store: cuiv.myspreadshop.com This video is basically PixInsight for dummies :) Note that it is critical to follow the workflows one by one, as I gradually speed up from example to example as you get more and more familiar with PixInsight! It's also important to have all the same modules installed, so make sure to follow the video step by step! RAW Data to follow along the workflows: drive.google.com/file/d/13UuvCXZ-WrtMUAoHzCy-iS8gGmqUhKw0/view?usp=sharing Folder at 10 min mark: %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Pleiades Concerning the HOO workflow for OSC cameras, I'm told the technically correct method is to do unlinked stretch (instead of linked stretch as in the video) and use Ha as Luminance in the Narrowband Normalization process - if you have issues with colors in HOO, you can give it a go! RC-Astro: rc-astro.com Starnet: starnetastro.com DeepSNR: deepsnrastro.com Seti Astro: youtube.com/@setiv2 Repositories List (Note: if you get any error at this point, just remove the offending repository and try again - and you can add the repo again later.

How much of a difference does a Newt Resolution advantage make!? Lets Find Out!
Cuiv, The Lazy Geek 2024-06-11 | My Patreon: patreon.com/cuivlazygeek My Merch Store: cuiv.myspreadshop.com Lukomatico large SCT vs Large Refractor: youtu.be/ZdysSs4v2YU Some notes: - In this video I look specifically at resolution and details, wanting to see the impact that seemingly small 1"/pixel difference makes on actual image - Since I'm looking specifically at resolution, I am completely ignoring the obvious refractor advantages (portability, ease of use, large FOV, perfect for extended targets) - just to be clear, refractors are excellent telescopes, and the RedCat is no exception! - It is both a very unfair comparison (much larger aperture! much more FL! Why are you even bothering??) and a very fair comparison (same optics price and same night) depending on what criteria we look at :) - There is a possibility that the RedCat is slightly out of focus (paired with the Newt slightly out of collimation), although this could be simply because we have small pixels and drizzling. However, I blindly trusted the ASIAir AF routine, although I'm not sure if it works as well as the NINA routine (which I trust and know intimately, having rewritten it back in the day) *Equipment used in Comparison* RedCat51: bit.ly/48hyuVx (Agena) or bit.ly/48pTWXW (HPS) Cable Organizers: etsy.com/shop/SmartComponents CarbonStar 6" Newtonian: bit.ly/3W7ZFiA ZWO ASI2600MC Duo: bit.ly/3M8IkPS (Agena) or bit.ly/3Jti7KQ (HPS) ZWO ASI585 MC Pro Camera: bit.ly/3Iwo6y8 (Agena) or bit.ly/4cp1Ofn (High Point Scientific) Amazon affiliate: amzn.to/49XTx01 Agena affiliate: bit.ly/3Om0hNG High Point Scientific affiliate: bit.ly/3lReu8R First Light Optics affiliate: tinyurl.com/yxd2jkr2 All-Star Telescope affiliate: http://bit.ly/3SCgVbV Astroshop.eu Affiliate: http://tinyurl.com/2vafkax8 ----------------------- My equipment ----------------------- Dwarf III Smart Telescope: bit.ly/3SyChXu Seestar S50: tinyurl.com/3n62hpzx ZWO ASI2600MC Duo: bit.ly/3M8IkPS (Agena) or bit.ly/3Jti7KQ (HPS) ZWO ASI585 MC Pro Camera: bit.ly/3Iwo6y8 (Agena) or bit.ly/4cp1Ofn (High Point Scientific) TOUPTEK IMX571 APS-C Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/mr2yhvcw TOUPTEK IMX585 Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/4y9dz774 OGMA versions (use code CUIV on checkout for a small discount!): getogma.com CarbonStar 6" Newtonian: bit.ly/3W7ZFiA Mirror Mask for CarbonStar (designed by me :) ): thingiverse.com/thing:6610187 SW Quattro 150P Budget Newt: bit.ly/3BABCxl Backyard Universe upgrade kit: tinyurl.com/3juwm5sz OCAL Collimator: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmuBKXB or https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dc6JT5B Askar V Modular Telescope: bit.ly/3Imoq2M or bit.ly/3GLuyR8 or tinyurl.com/2h758bvt RedCat51: bit.ly/48hyuVx (Agena) or bit.ly/48pTWXW (HPS) WarpAstron WD-20 Mount: bit.ly/3wxNbGI ZWO AM5 Mount: bit.ly/3Qb5xVf or bit.ly/3JeVUkn ZWO EAF Focuser: bit.ly/45agP0Z (Agena) or bit.ly/4avCIcE (HPS) Antlia ALP-T highspeed filter: bit.ly/42RBR2e SVBony Filters: amzn.to/3yBuQZX Mini Computer (newer version): amzn.to/49XTx01 Flocking paper/Felt paper: amzn.to/3zASgvu or amzn.to/3m94zwa Follow me!

Chill Astrophotography with Cuiv - but trying out new mounts at the same time!
Cuiv, The Lazy Geek 2024-06-06 | BIG CORRECTION! I just realized I had the guidescope focal length in the ASIAir set to 120mm (my old guidescope), BUT the OAG was actually at 250mm - so the 0.9-1" of guiding are actually 0.45-0.5" of guiding on the UMi 17 Lite, which is excellent! Mounts used today: - UMi 17 Lite: proxisky.com/?_l=en (good 0.5" guiding results with the RedCat for now!) - EMCAN EM31Pro: emcanastro.com (good 0.7" guiding results with max payload!)

These connectors are not designed for outdoor use and condensation will eventually form and corrode the metal parts. The oxidation on the surface of the metal contacts creates parasitic resistance which interferes with the data transfer. This is the reason the cables initially work and then fail. The solution is to replace the bad cables or use a drop of contact cleaner solution (sold in electronics stores). ----------------------- My equipment ----------------------- Dwarf III Smart Telescope: bit.ly/3SyChXu Seestar S50: tinyurl.com/3n62hpzx ZWO ASI2600MC Duo: bit.ly/3M8IkPS (Agena) or bit.ly/3Jti7KQ (HPS) ZWO ASI585 MC Pro Camera: bit.ly/3Iwo6y8 (Agena) or bit.ly/4cp1Ofn (High Point Scientific) TOUPTEK IMX571 APS-C Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/mr2yhvcw TOUPTEK IMX585 Cooled camera: tinyurl.com/4y9dz774 OGMA versions (use code CUIV on checkout for a small discount!): getogma.com CarbonStar 6" Newtonian: bit.ly/3W7ZFiA Mirror Mask for CarbonStar (designed by me :) ): thingiverse.com/thing:6610187 SW Quattro 150P Budget Newt: bit.ly/3BABCxl Backyard Universe upgrade kit: tinyurl.com/3juwm5sz OCAL Collimator: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmuBKXB or https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dc6JT5B Askar V Modular Telescope: bit.ly/3Imoq2M or bit.ly/3GLuyR8 or tinyurl.com/2h758bvt RedCat51: bit.ly/48hyuVx (Agena) or bit.ly/48pTWXW (HPS) WarpAstron WD-20 Mount: bit.ly/3wxNbGI ZWO AM5 Mount: bit.ly/3Qb5xVf or bit.ly/3JeVUkn ZWO EAF Focuser: bit.ly/45agP0Z (Agena) or bit.ly/4avCIcE (HPS) Antlia ALP-T highspeed filter: bit.ly/42RBR2e SVBony Filters: amzn.to/3yBuQZX Mini Computer (newer version): amzn.to/49XTx01 Flocking paper/Felt paper: amzn.to/3zASgvu or amzn.to/3m94zwa Follow me!
