Astrophotography Tool (APT) ver 3.84 Just Arrived

#1

Post by JayTee »


Hot off the presses,

APT v. 3.84 was just released. I'm still poking through it to see what all got improved (that I routinely use). If you are looking for full (and I mean full) featured image acquisition program for a very, very reasonable price ($22) this is the one.

Thanks, Ivo @Yoddha,

I see the new version has ASTAP support - I tried that out when I was tinkering with N.I.N.A and it worked very fast. It may be worth the upgrade just for that feature!

My annual subscription to APT upgrades had run out four weeks ago so I had to pay a whopping $6.57 for another year of subscription. I spend more than that on a six-pack of beer. Although necessary, it's not nearly as utilitarian.
