Thanks, I've never been clear on the stacking process - this looks like a great place to start!

Incredible...I had no idea that Sequator had all of those features. Thank you for showing us the way!

Welcome back to a simpler set of tools and equipment. Great video as always. Pretty neat what you can do with only a bit of kit and free software. Cheers.

As a beginner I can't thank you enough Trevor, your tutorials are sooooo helpful. :)

I can't thank you enough for making these videos, I just recently got into astrophotography this winter and your content is so incredibly helpful, especially for a beginner like me. 👍🌌

Thank you. I have wanted to do this for decades. I had almost given up when Sequator came out free.

Thanks Trevor for the quick video on this software. I first came across it on one of Peter Zelinka’s videos back in 2020. Ironically enough, he found DSS later on and dabbled a bit there having never used it. I guess we’re all still learning and that’s so amazing. Thx again!

Had this software for a while . Thanks Trevor for the tutorial.

Thanks a lot ! I just used it a few minutes ago, it's great, Sequator just stacked 7 images perfectly in about 20 seconds ! So easy to use, so easy to re-import in Lightroom. :)

I was wondering when you were going to show this off. This was my software of choice for DSLR. Easily better than DSS

It's not as good technically but it's way faster and especially better for wide angle images. DSS has better image quality but it's also a bit picky about how good the sub has to be. But for best image , pixinsight is the way to go

Well this is definetly a life-changer for my astrophotography experience. Tried it last night and it's freaking awesome. The results are just astoniishing. Thank you!

Thanks for pointing out this software. I have seen this before but never used it. I tried it on some old data from last summer, very similar to what you used in the video, and it turned out very well. Thanks again for educating us with these tutorials.

Thank you Trevor for another great video for us beginners. I will download if I haven’t already. Since it’s been cloudy it’s a good time to learn processing.

Thank you, based on this tutorial I gave Sequator an another try and and the result was greatly improved.

Brilliantly explained cheers I’ve never ever been interested in Star stacking until now 📷

Thank you so much, Trevor, for a beginner like me that was incredibly helpful.

Sequator was the first stacker to give me good results and was simple to use when I was first starting out in AP. I, too was pretty surprised that it seemed to be ignored by most folks doing AP. I've since graduated to DSS, which didn't initially work for me, and SirL, but sometimes when I'm in a hurry to look at results, Sequator is my go-to! I trust that Trevor's video will give it the attention it deserves. Oh, and the author does request a dollar or two to buy him a cup of coffee if you like his program--I've sent him a few.

Really straight forward tutorial! Love it!

Beautiful video Trevor! Sequator looks much simpler to use than Dss, but it seems not to offer you so much control and options as Deep Sky Stacker, currently working on a Full tutorial on stacking in Dss, but will try and do some stacks in sequator also, and try it especially for nightscapes.

thanks, Trevor for another great video.

Thanks Trevor, I just received my Apertura 60EDR today and will receive my used Canon T6i tomorrow and hopefully receive my Celestron Advanced VX mount by the end of February. I am a TOTAL newbie and was hesitant regarding editing. This sounds like a great easy package.

Tnx for a nice tutorial. I hsve used it many times to process old astrophotos and it is super fast!! I used to preprocess in IRIS which was so slow, that it bricks your computer. I have doneted to the author some dollars and I also encourage everyone to do so. Amazing simple and free software.🎇

I just followed this and stacked my first milky way photo. Thanks for the very easy to understand video!

Congrats for 300k! I just saw you hit it!

I use sequator for all my nightscape images and have even stacked images of the full moon with it. Love this software works perfect every time for me.

This is a great tutorial, thanks Trevor! Gonna try it myself and see how it compares with DSS.

My favorite software! Well explained Trevor

AWESOME Trevor! 🙌🏻

My pleasure, Kurt. It's pretty great, I think you would enjoy it!

Thanks for the introduction. I had the software but hesitated to us it. Now I will definitely use.

1st rattle out of the box, Sequator didn't do so good on my rendition of the Lobster Claw. But then after digging back through some old archives, I ran it again on the Great Globular Cluster in Hercules; and it did a great job! ...batter in fact than what I was able to do with DSS. So it appears having both programs at the ready may offer additional choices not had before. Thanks for the tip Trevor!!

Thank you for this tutorial. I need to process my first MW photo and I feel more confident now.

Ummm, well, looks like I’m downloading a new stacking software...

I found this program during the Neowise gambit. It's pretty great.

thanks, dude! Very good tutorial and nice pics!

Just downloaded Sequator and watched this, just what I needed, nice n simple. I'm not very techy so this is perfect for me. Hopefully get some clear sky soon so I can get my scope and recently purchased old dslr hooked up for some shots of Andromeda. Thanks for a great video.

4:38 thank you - I came here for this. it's an awesome program which I use for stacking my lapse astro shots on my S23 Ultra. what I really needed was a way to regulate the size of the brush for the mask, and you've come through with the goods.

Thanks for the video. I love the software. I have used it before and plan on a night out on the 15th of this month (04/15 or 15/04 - 2023 - whichever format you choose...) to take some pictures. Wish me clear skies :)

AWESOME tutorial!! Thank you so much!!

This look remarkably easy to use. Thank you!

Great overview Trevor, thanks! :)

Thanks for this my friend! I'm just beginning astrophotography & was wondering which program to try, your tutorial made the choice easy!

This is great! Thanks Trevor!

Oh god thank you so much, your tutorial was easy to understand!

Thank you for the quick and dirty tutorial. I'm still struggling with my processing techniques. This looks almost simple enough that I think even I could do it LOL!

ANOTHER great tutorial Thank you.

Hi Trevor/love ur work mate...content is awesome every time...I use a 6d markii & it would be great to see more of ur work using that camera...I know it’s no-where close to some of ur other rigs, but just interesting seeing ur results from using that camera 👍

Thank you very much, straight to the point and simple. great vid

Excellent video - thanks for explaining this process. Now I have all the pieces and parts I need to make this a success. Just waiting for the remote shutter release for my new camera and the t-adaptor and t-ring.

I have been experimenting with smartphone astrophotography. I use astrocam software on Mi9 with a tripod. I have been using Sequator for quite sometime. I just love the software. Easy to use, works like a charm, great output. A little bit of tweak in lightroom and I get seriously good images.

THANKS for your great tutorial.

Great review. In an hadware expensive hobby like this, free tools like this helps a lot and are really welcomed.

Thank you for the guide, I found it very usefull. It was a great presentation!

Thanks mate, love the videos. 🇬🇧

Please do more editing-style videos, I love those, and you make videos really well.

Excellent - Thanks for sharing. Really useful .

Thank you for this! Very helpful!

Great Video, good job on explaining.

It seems like really beginner friendly, so the perfect software for me, which I will try out when the weather gets better.....

Thank you for this great video !

I've used sequator when DSS refused to process some images but I had no idea about the extra options you pointed out. I will absolutely be trying those out next time.

thanks soo much this helped me stack my first photo of the orion nebula thx

Awesome software and still free. Use it for all my night time shots

Great, thanks. I'll give it a try.

First of all, thanks for all of the excellent videos you post. I appreciate your positivity and enthusiasm. Regarding this video ... I've been using Sequator for a couple months and was wondering why it hadn't been given more attention by well-known photographers such as yourself. Good to see that I am not crazy after all and that respected people like you are using it also. As you said, we should all be thanking the software creator .. he/she deserves accolades for this software.

From my limited experience: Sequator is easy to use with clear options and baked in algorithms that are pretty good for everything. It's easier to get it to successfully stack problematic frames (e.g., frames with focus problems, or slightly smeared stars) as compared to, say, Deep Sky Stacker. That all makes it easier for people new to astrophotography to get actual results without spending hours fighting with software. And of course it does landscape freezing, which hardly any other software does. I think a big part of why it's not talked about more are the very things that make it simple and easy for newbies to use. DSS and Astro Pixel Processor allow you to choose different algorithms and do other additional categorization and processing to improve the output, while Sequator is more "good enough". Personally I've moved to Astro Pixel Processor. It has lots of options, but has real guidance about when and how to use them. DSS has very little guidance about its many, many options (and I personally suspect some of them are of the "this isn't actually useful, but we included it for the sake of completeness" variety). On the other hand, DSS is free, while APP costs a chunk of cash.

Greater tutorial I love simplicity

Thank you so much for making this very useful video

It is excellent software, I've been using it for a couple years.

The result 😍

Thanks for the Sequator software

Very great video. Glad you told us about this tool

I'll have to give that a go!

Thank you for this video! fot this past weekend's perseid meteor shower i did my best to capture some just with my phone camera on a tripod. I was able to get 3 snd even though there is clear light pollution i was able to use Sequator to stack the 3 images to have all 3 meteors show up in one image! This was my first time doing soemthing like this and hopefully in the future whenever i can get bettre equipment and can get photos like yours as well :)

I have used Sequator instead DeepSkystacker and I am very happy with the results. I recommend it

Notification gang :)

Yes, very good soft, I use it for both nightscape & DSO. Some problems ( light pollution removal generate colour banding imho) but VERY simple & good.

very very good tutorial ,many thanks

Very interesting. Stacking has always been a bit of a put off for me. Will have to give it a go.

Super helpful! Thanks so much! Until I watched your video, I didn't know about the "freeze ground" option and so I kept getting blurred foregrounds.

Trevor it would nice to see you stacking in FITs tutorial! Thanks!

Now i got the idea.thank you

awesome I'll give this a try

Awesome review... thanks

Thanks Trevor, don't remember ever trying Sequator, might try running my 2 dumbbell sets that wouldn't stack through it and see what happens.

Thank you Trevor

Really interesting, will download and give it a go. Seems a more 'black box' solution where it does most of its processing based on internal algorithms, compared to DSS where you can select a wider set of options before running. Doesn't make it a bad thing though, just a different way of doing it.

Jeezzzz not more software :p my heads dun in from all the learning lol nice one Trev.

This video was awesome, I have tried Sequator but never quite got the result I was looking for. Turns out I was painting the entire sky even along tree edges and it came out weird, it never occurred to me to just paint the Milky Way

Muy bueno yo lo uso siempre saludos Bro!
