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.

PushToCam Manual

Thank you for using PushToCam iOS app. It is an easy way to find your way in the space.  PushToCam is different from FinderCam in a significant way.

Align means that the phone and telescope are pointing to the same object.  First Alignment: The app is designed to use out of the box. The idea is to select a  bright  star on  your  phone and point the telescope to the same star. A star is selected when a white circle appears on the star. 1. Raise the pho...

We do not collect or share user information. The apps are designed for the busy astronomers. For FinderCam, PlateSolveCam and PushToCam, your location information is required to calculate which part of the sky your phone is pointing at.

SpiralCam is developed more for manual teles...
