Astro Pixel Processor - Stacking shots from multiple sessions and multiple cameras
This is a long video so feel free to skip to the end (18:57) to see the final demo and how my galaxies turned out!
I normally use Deep Sky Stacker to stack my astro pictures. But recently, I astro-modded my old Canon T2i to capture Hydrogen-alpha signal. My normal camera is a Canon T5i. Same family, different cameras. I thought stacking these would be a piece of cake but I was wrong!
These two cameras saved the images slightly differently and DSS (and Siril) didn't like it. So I tried to Astro Pixel Processor hoping I can stack the 6 hours of M82 that I took across two nights because I really didn't want to throw out half of my shots.
And APP was awesome! It stacked for me and stretched my pictures better than I expected. In this video, I do a quick demo of the process and show how user friendly the software is. You can get more info on the software at https://www.astropixelprocessor.com/

This is a timelapse of Jupiter rotating and three of its moons (Io, Ganymede, and Europa) orbiting the Gas Giant over a 50 minute period. The seeing that night wasn't very good so the planet gets blurry from time to time. Captured using my Telescope and T5i Canon DSLR on Saturday Sept 24, 2022 right after midnight.

Mars will be at opposition on Dec 8, 2022. Last time I attempted Mars at opposition was in 2014 so I wanted to get some much needed practice in.
To my surprise, my little bit of practice resulted in the best photo I've taken of Mars to date! I'm really excited for opposition now. Are you?
