Synth Module - The ability to create, save, and choose custom profiles

For the Synth module, on the occasions I use it, I use the exact same configuration as the actual equipment used to capture the original image. It would be nifty if settings could be saved as custom profiles for different focal lengths, vane widths, and so on for useage again later. :)

Re: Can AutoDev be throttled back?

Dont underestimate playing with the values for fine detail cutoff. Makes a huge difference. Take your time playing with different ROI's and the outside ROI influence settings.

Tips for processing Open Clusters

Hello,

I was looking for any processing tips when handling open clusters w/o discernable nebulosity. Do you have any suggestions for settings to use in the HDR module for these types of objects?

Thanks in advance.

Autobin :)

This may not be feasible, but why not. Im picturing a feature added onto the Bin module where it analyzes the image and based on some input parameters of some kind, it can determine mathematically if the image is oversampled or undersampled. If oversampled, it could determine by how much a provide a...

Re: Why is Filmdev recommended when using the Layers module

I find using FilmDev makes it a bit easier to control the stretch post-wipe. AutoDev seems to over or understretch. I rarely get results I'm comfortable pushing forward with.
