N.I.N.A. Tutorial

#1

Post by JayTee »


I am finally going to make the switch from APT to N.I.N.A.. Does anyone know of any good tutorials for N.I.N.A.. Since the clear weather season is about to start it seems an appropriate time to make the switch.

Thanks,

Cuiv is great but Patriot Astro is the NINA master. He hasn't produced many new videos lately but 99.95% of what he has done is still relevant for the latest version of NINA.
I'm also a huge NINA fan and supporter so let me know if there is anything I can help you with. Also, join the NINA Discord channel. You can usually get an answer there within 5-10 minutes.

+1 for Patriot Astro. I'd also encourage you to download his templates for the Advanced Sequencer. These are really complete and are easy to tweak for your setup and imaging style.
