Hello all,
I noticed many of my AB friends joined this group so I thought I’d start off with this thread just to see what your favorite part of SC is and what is the most used features within it that you use and like the best?

1st) My personal favorite is that fact that I can live stack and get a good idea what the image may look like when I’m done processing the collected data.
2nd) This kinda goes with #1 but I love the fact that you can use your SC masters for Flat & Darks in the live stack. Makes things so much better on the screen.
3rd) Hands down I absolutely love the PA tool! Whether its in the observatory tweaking my main 2 setups or doing road trip to a dark site and setting up with PA and getting it really close within minutes.
4th) 2 other things I love is that I can control my focuser and mount without leaving SC. I know other software can do the same but I just think this is a cool integration that Robin incorporated.

Ok Your Turn!

Dale

I use it for lunar and planetary imaging but absolutely love the polar alignment tool.

I especially like the single page format where everything is up front and easy to access: acquisition setup, mount controls, focus adjustments, filter wheel, histogram, cooling, zoom, etc. That's the main reason I have stuck with SC is the user-friendly software.

I love the polar alignment tool, really quick and so accurate! Really easy to use as well, either for my deepsky, or planetary or solar. Not to mention the plate solving abilities to ensure I am spot on where I want to target. A lot to like...
