Manual Calibration

This section wraps up Manual Calibration by touching on the use of the pedestal option (referring to another video on it) and master dark frame optimization.

This section, like the previous, demonstrates the full sequence from creating master calibration files to generating an integrated color image. Here slight variations are shown with respect to the color filter array, debayering, and light frame calibration. 

The Finale! This is an AdamBlockStudios exclusive demonstrating once and for all, there is no difference mathematically between the two methods of calibrating and combining images.... to the final significant digit. 

With the creation of the master biases, darks, and flats light frames can be calibrated and the simple production of an RGB image can unfold. 

Here is the first of two demonstrations showing that Manual processing and processing done by script are the same mathematically. However... the script is better suited to save time, minimize errors, and be instructive for beginners.

This section demonstrates the Manual process of creating master biases, darks, and flats.

This is part 2 of the Calibration primer that will set up an understanding of Manual Calibration and more. 

Manual Calibration is in most cases synonymous with WBPP. Learn all about calibration in general and then compare and contrast the differences in the two methods. Big reveal, numerically there are none- but one method is better for beginners...
