Hi Tanja
Nebulosity used correctly is an outstanding capturing and processing tool. I have been using it for about 4 years now, hated it to start but now i love it.

Firstly i suggest you read from cover to cover the manual, then download Craig Starks excellent guide" PrepProcessing Walkthrough. Again read it from cover to cover, there really are no short cuts.

I shoot with a canon DSLR and only capture to computer FITS. From my experience the FITS files just seem to have a whole lot more info in them to work with.

Make sure you shoots lots of subs and pay particular attention to your histogram, If you have pink stars then you have over exposed and saturated the image.

All of my serious post processing is done in Photoshop. If you want to see the results type my name in in the deep sky images section of IceInSpace.

Once again make sure you read the manuals and tutorials.

Regards and good imaging
