Nebulosity4.1.8e

While astrophotography is an amazing hobby, the problem you are likely to encounter while trying to get a shot of the night sky is light pollution. Even though the sky gets brighter the good news is that you can still grab great photo using a longer integration time, a term that refers to the total exposure created by combining the shorter exposures.Nebulosity is a tool designed for astrophotography that does not only let you manage the exposure but also gives you more control over the functions of your camera and post-processing.

Packs several camera control and image processing tools

Even though the program comes with a rather simple interface, this can be an advantage is you do not enjoy navigating through lots of menus during an image inspection for instance. Nevertheless, depending on your needs and preferences, you can customize the GUI to display and arrange the tools that you are likely to use.When analyzing an image, all the basic parameters – duration of exposure, number of exposure per session, delay, camera gain or offset – are exhibited on the main screen. As far as the image manipulation is concerned, you can perform a wide variety of internal calculations, alignments, stacking, pre-processing, power-stretch, curves, star tightening, synthetic flat fielder, Gaussian blurring, so on and so forth.

Support numerous CCD camera models

It is worth mentioning that the program works with a wide variety of dedicated cameras, including, but not limited to Canon DIGIC, Meade, SBIG, Qsi, QHY, Fishcamp Starfish, Atik, Starlight Express, ZWO ASI, ASCOM-5, Apogee, CCD Labs, FLI, Moriavian, Orion StarShoot Dee-Space Color Imager,  OptiStar, SAC7 and SAC10.Moreover, the app supports several image formats in 16-bit, 24-bit and 48-bit image depths, namely TGA, PNG, TIFF, FITS, JPEG and BMP.Available in a clean and user-friendly interface, Nebulosity is a reliable application that can help you capture, calibrate, stack and even process the images you grab of the night sky.
