I am requesting that a feature be added to support astrophotography. To aid in the processing of images astrophotographers take Lights, Darks, BIAS and Flats subs. These 4 types of subs are needed to effectively stack the Light subs and reduce noise. Ideally Lights and Darks should be taken at the "
same temperature" (camera / sensor) to effectively reduce thermal noise. The exposure of Lights and Darks can be as long as 15 minutes.
The feature request is something like LENR where a Dark is taken after the Light and automatically subtracted from the Light. I would like to be able to tell ML to take a Light sub and then have it automatically take a Dark after the Light and have both images stored in the camera or downloaded. This feature would provide "
matching" Lights and Darks. This will aid in the final image stacking and noise reduction and result in better images.
