I guess you would only capture enough RGB just to get the colour SNR better.

Interesting experiment.

Cheers Bill. I can see a difference, but it's certainly not night and day. As I said in the original post, I think it'll be different for different targets... if you have really dim nebulosity I think you'll get muddy, low contrast colours for example.

Yeah, that's the plan but I don't have enough RGB to do produce a remotely reasonable image yet. That particular comparison (LRGB vs RGB) will be a more difficult one to do fairly as well.
