Luminance color astrophotography and using monochrome and one shot color cameras together will be the subject this week on the Sky-Watcher What’s Up? Webcast.
The Sky-Watcher team will take a deep dive into luminance color astrophotography and discuss how in astrophotography there are two types of cameras used: monochrome and one shot color. Monochrome provides increased detail and signal where color provides convenience. But what happens if you combine the luminance capability of monochrome cameras with the capabilities of one shot color? The SkyWatcher team will take a look at how adding luminance to color data can expand your images detail.
