Astrophotography Softwares for Mac
Hi all,
I use a Sony a6400 as my main imaging camera with an intervelometer for my imaging session till now. But recently I have ordered a dedicated Astronomy Camera ZWO ASI 533MC PRO. The problem is I use Mac. So I cannot use APT . Are there any astrophotography camera control softwares for Mac , like APT ? Please help me.

I believe there is a Mac version of the FireCapture programme. But I've not used it!

Re: Astrophotography Softwares for Mac
Possibly no Mac version of Fire Capture. And still, it is a Planetary Capture software..not deep sky.

This may be of help https://www.cloudmakers.eu/xindi/ and startools for processing https://www.startools .org/ Astap for stacking an excellent platesolver too if capture software supports it.

Re: Astrophotography Softwares for Mac
I hate to suggest this, but probably your most expedient answer is to go and buy a used inexpensive PC laptop. That's what I use. Now I have access to all the software titles.
