Thanks. The next question is of course how many?

I read 2 articles today - one said to take at least 50 each of dark, flat & bias shots, the more the better, and that the number of calibration shots is not related to the number of lights.

The other said to take 3-4 times as many calibration shots as the number of lights.

I've also read in posts here on this forum that some people take an equal number of darks/flats to lights.

Is there a right answer to the "how many" question?

I've never taken flats before, and have only used approx the same number darks as lights and thrown in a dozen or so bias shots. I want to start doing things the right way but there seems to be many opinions out there.
