Certainly an interesting thread.

I have noticed, from my meagre experience, that INCR appears to give better images. But that said it takes up imaging time. So does doing darks at the end or imaging.

I am in the middle of building a new library of "darks". I noticed that with the rear LCD screen on (aka the exposure counter timer screen, not live view) produces a glow much like amp glow in the dark images.

I couldn't find the sub-menu to shut off the LCD screen completely. I can shut off the "live view" but not the exposure counter timer screen.

Easiest fix was to plug in a lead to the video out. This shuts off the rear LCD completely.

Edit:

Ahhhh Pressing the display button in the home screen shuts off the LCD completely. I was pressing it off only when it was in the countdown menu and thus it would re-activate the LCD display when that exposure was complete.
