I use AstroArt V.4.0 for image capture as it is easy to use if you have a fairly complicated series of images to take and furthermore I use a textfile to take a series of images of various targets during which time I can retire to the pub, watch TV, etc.Generally speaking no one piece of software does everything so I use IRIS, AIP4WIN, GUIDE, Astrometrica, AstPhot32, FITS Viewer and occasionally SX software as well as AstroArt. Several of these are freely availableTry posting your question re. operation of the Lodestar autoguider on the SX Yahoo e-group list. I think it may have come up before.Richard
