Abstract :
We present a study of photometric and astrometric measurements from adaptive optics observaions of a very crowded field. We compare two different techniques to extract the point spread function from the field primarily investigating the ability of the StarFinder package to generate both the photometric and astrometric measurements and PSFs. These results are composed with those obtained using blind deconvolution techniques.
