Easy Processing of Single-shot Color Images with CCDOPS
Once you have captured the image, from the Utility drop-down menu in
CCDOPS select Single Shot Color
--> Color Process and you are ready to
go. Processing of Single-Shot Color Camera images is easy. Start by
clicking the Defaults button and selecting RGB or DDP for the Method
(DDP works great on galaxies with bright cores). Click on “Process.” Now
a full-color image will finally appear! Experiment using the sliders to adjust
the color balance, brightness and contrast. Each time you click on “Process”
the image will update and display your changes. The single-shot color
combination methods available are:
RGB: Standard three channel (R, G, B) color combination.
RGBs:
DDP: Applies a DDP filter to each channel (R, G, B) before combination.
The image below is a screen captures of the single step process and the
dialog box shows the settings in their default positions using DDP as the
method:
Step 1: Capture the image and save the raw data
Step 2: Click the "PROCESS" button to create the color image
