Thanks Tony.
I feel it enhances the detail as there is more subtlety to the image and it becomes less "posterised" which also helps with star-colours. I use the Luminance sliders in DSS to do this (particularly the highlight and midtone sliders) and also ensure that I have a distinctly grayish sky background (by pushing up the RGB/K Levels sliders) so the image is not black-clipped before sending it to PS for post-processing.
I'm far from an expert in all of this mind-you and am just sharing what works best for me (after a lot of trial and error - mostly error
).
