Irreverent to the Camera and you have a Canon, just take the pictures a short/long as you like and stack them.

What the hell is binning, although i don't do it now imaging was easy and it did not involve BINNING

Man In took some fantastic wide fields and BINNING was a silly word

Leon,


Binning is the process of reducing resolution by combining pixels in order to gain sensitivity. 2x2 binning means 2 horizontal pixels and 2 vertical pixels are combined so that the binned pixel is 4 times as large and therefore 4x as sensitive.


Typically colour channels are collected binned and the luminance channel is collected unbinned (for maximum resolution). The colour channels are recombined in LRGB processing to construct the final image.


Sorry Chris I can't help directly with your question as I'm not familiar with Nebulosity, but it sounds like the binned colour channel images are simply being stacked with the luminosity channel rather than being applied to the LRGB channels.


Al.
