Doug and fellow imagers - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the stacker in AIP. It is capable of rotating the field. The thing I like about AIP is that you...

Doug, Both of the programs you mentioned have a free trial version. I have been playing with Nebulosity this week and so far it looks good. I plan on trying...
