There's not much point having a fully automated capture process if the results are not satisfactory.

This 100% depends on your situation, When I go to pauls house to image for new moons. I will watch the focus routine and make sure it picks the best focus. From home, mid week, if I do a run and it gets 3 shots that are out of focus at 3am and then goes back into focus. Its way more data than I would have got without setting up because I have work and cant babysit it all night.
I will fire up the lappy and see if I have any logs one of these days to send you .
