Not quite sure that I understand the question Dave, but for certain, your scope is definitely very fast.

Take for example the mag 21 table at gain 0. Your scope will need a bit over 35 seconds and an f7 scope will need 7 minutes per sub to get to the same result. At f2.2, your scope puts photons into the pixels at about 10x the rate of an f7 scope.
