Introduction and Privacy Policy

Thank you for using SpiralCam, MilkyCam, SaturnCam, ImageCam, VideoCam, VideoStack,, WaveletCam, FinderCam, PushToCam, RawCam and AstroEdit. Talk to us at  https://www.facebook.com/yong54321

We do not collect or share user information. The apps are designed for busy astronomers.

For FinderCam, PlateSolveCam and PushToCam, your location information is required to calculate which part of the sky your phone is pointing at.

I was asked what are the difference between the apps, here is an incomplete summary

Planning - Sun, Moon and Planets widgets (includes satellite, galaxy and comet too)
Finding - PushToCam (no need camera to guide telescope but need some knowledge of bright star) and FinderCam (use camera to plate solve and find the phone pointing in the sky)
Capturing - videoCam (video first and stack later on videoStack)
Capturing and stacking - milkyCam and spiralCam (real time stacking for unlimited time). SpiralCam is developed more for manual telescope. MilkyCam Raw is a new app designed for Goto telescope. MilkyCam Raw has higher resolution and run faster than original MilkyCam app. However, MilkyCam Raw depends on the telescope to track the sky object. 
Stacking - VideoStack for Galaxy (stack videos from videoCam and iPhone Photo app), VideoStack for Planet. 
Processing - waveletCam (real time wavelet image processing), AstroEdit is a quick general astrophotography app.

    Hi,
    Could you add the function to use the 2x lens on iPhone with dual lenses? With the use of 2x lens, not only will it solve the circle from the telescope eyepiece problem, it would also give more zoom to the targets. Theoretically, by using 2x lens, it should result in better images.

VideoStack For Planet Manual

Image
Thank you for using VideoStack for Planet iOS app. It is an easy way to stack your video frames into a single photo. Stacking is a way to combine the images so that noise is removed in the final image. See below 2 photos of 1 frame vs 40 frames. Previously, in order to image a planet, it is quite a long workflow. You have to take a video on your camera, upload to your computer, and use PIPP > Registax > GIMP to crop, stack and process the video frames. Now you can do it on your phone conveniently. Direction: 1. Use videoCam iOS app to take a short video of the planet with your telescope. You will need at least 130mm telescope to see some details on Jupiter. In the app, adjust the exposure, frame rate and ISO so that you can see some details on the planet and start to record a video. Save the video to your phone album. Alternatively, you can use phone native camera to record a video. However, it has less control over the video parameters.  2. Trim your video on your phone to abou
