Saturn NexStar 4SE RegiStax 6 NexImage Bahtinov mask and Vibration Suppression Pads

Saturn April 21, 2011. Weather was not good - it was windy and partially cloudy. To suppress vibration I used Celestron Vibration Suppression Pads. To made better focus - used  Bahtinov focus mask.

RegiStax 6 - Astrophotography Saturn - Testing new version v6

RegiStax 6 release 2 April 2011
Just downloaded the new version and tested it.
Installation was very simple and no problem for Vista. Interface is simpler and more intuitive.
I had some problem with multi alignment in version 5. In RegiStax 6 it works as magic -- no issue. New function - Linked Wavelet Layers -- is great! Speed fantastic. This is major improvements which allow make more experimental settings and find best parameters for final image.

Thanks for RegiStax all people who created, develop and support it! It's amazing free product!

For Saturn observation I used Celestron 4Se telescope, Barlow 2x, NexImage.
Hope it video helps and gives you ideas what you can do with Registax.
