4. Stacking

After optimization reaches the desired level, the frames will be stacked. There are various options affecting stacking, but since we chose the automatic Optimize and Stack, it will proceed automatically to stack the best frames of the image.

After stacking has finished it will automatically go to the Wavelet page. You will notice that the stacked image is softer and less noisy than the individual frames, but detail is less apparent and we can use wavelets to sharpen the image and bring up the detail.
