Hello, I wonder if Hugin could be the tool I need for astro-photography.
I'd like to take large-field fotographs of the sky, where Milky Way rules. Because of earth movement, I can't do really long exposure shots; perhaps about 30 seconds for small focal length lenses (~18 mm) and 5-10 seconds for medium ones (~50 mm). Moreover, I must take very high sensitivities 1600~3200 ASA to get something similar to an sky image ;-) So, the result will be very noisy. So my plan is to take many such photos, centered in the same star- spot, and average them in order to increase S/N ratio. But, because of earth rotation, the images will be slighted tilted from one to another. That's the reason I think Hugin can help. I can put all the images in Hugin and select some stars as anchor-points from one image to another. So, my plan is not really make a big panorama, but average a lot of near-framed images, with rotation and displacement corrected by Hugin. Can Hugin do this? suggestions?
