In this video series, I explain the image acquisition software N.I.N.A (Nighttime Imaging N'Astronomy) step by step.

The first part covers the software installation, additional software such as PHD2 or ASTAP, and their associated catalogs. You'll also see which settings you can adjust before using the software for the first time, hopefully giving you a good overview. Sequencing software is very versatile, which means there are many settings to configure. This can make it a bit complicated at first. So, you'll need some patience initially so that it eventually runs smoothly.

Have fun and clear skies!
