There seems to be a huge difference capturing in IC capture and FireCapture. I get much better color response in FC capture..
More features, I guess I started to like the program much more.

I do not know what happened Paul, but it seems that FC is doing some magic on my capturing and also better processing and color rendering..

Wow, Freddy. This will sound stupid, but the only thing that would make these great shots better is the GRS or Galilean moons.

How can the capture app make the images better? Anyone have any guesses?

Not that I know of, but I seems to get better response with FC, must be the settings or.... some good seeing came along that moment, will try more captures when weather cooperates.

Hi Freddy,

Great images for sure!!Excellent blue channel like
Paul stated :grin:

So finally you begin to use FC don't you?
IMHO when you do color capturing like with DFK or alike
the debayering on the fly works very good with FC.
ALso the debayering seems to render much sharper results
with FC then with IC, at least with my equipment :rainbow:

Good to see these cracking results Freddy, congrats!

Great work Freddy! Any differences in capture might be attributed to seeing. Seeing makes comparisons difficult since it can change minute to minute.
