MallinCam TM and DeepSky Imaing Steve Tuma, author of DeepSky Astronomy Software, recently introduced a program called, DeepSky Imaging. Deepsky Imaging is an image enhancement and video CCD capture software. Using the software you can capture images from your MallinCam. The software is compatible with any capture device that supports Microsoft Direct Show. In addition, the software contains many tools to enhance existing astronomical images and utilizes the Awesome pre-processing engine from Deepsky Stacker.
To Check Out DeepSkyImaging, CLICK HERE To look at the Manual that I prepared for using DeepSky Imaging with your MallinCam, CLICK HERE The software allows MallinCam owners to either grab single frames, or to automate the capture of a sequence of frames. Once the frames have been obtained, DeepSky Imaging can align and stack them and present the output for further processing. This can be done while observing. Below are a few examples of images obtained using DeepSky Imaging. They are stacks of 4 to 15 frames and they have been ajusted for brightness and contrast. There are other image processing functions in DeepSky Imaging that will allow for further refinement of the images.
