Getting Started with RawFlow

Welcome to RawFlow! In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the essential steps to process your first astrophotography image.

Why RawFlow?

RawFlow is specifically designed for astrophotographers who need to process high-resolution RAW files while preserving the delicate details of stars and nebulae.

Key Features

• 8K Ultra-Processing Engine: Process images up to 8K resolution with 16-bit precision
• AI-Powered Denoising: Remove noise while preserving star details
• Non-Destructive Editing: Never lose your original image quality

Step 1: Import Your RAW File

Start by importing your RAW file (supports CR3, ARW, NEF formats). RawFlow will automatically detect the optimal processing settings for your camera and sensor type.

Step 2: Basic Adjustments

Begin with the fundamental adjustments:

1. Exposure: Fine-tune the overall brightness
2. Contrast: Enhance the dynamic range
3. White Balance: Correct color temperature for accurate star colors

Step 3: AI Denoise

One of RawFlow's most powerful features is its AI denoising. Simply tap the "AI Denoise" button and let our neural network remove unwanted noise while preserving important details.

Pro Tip: Use moderate denoising settings for best results. Over-processing can remove fine star details!

Step 4: Star Reduction (Optional)

If you're imaging nebulae, the star reduction feature helps minimize dense star fields, making your target object stand out beautifully.
