Hi Guys, well what dose one do when the weather is foul and there is not much imaging happening, play around with old captures of coarse. :whistle:

As the heading suggests, I was just trying different things and wondered what a combined set of Raw images of Eta Carinae would look like.

So here we have it, this image consists of 13 Raw frames @ 6 mins each combined only in Image Plus, nothing else was done to it at all, and it is as the modded 5D captured them. ;)

To be honest I don't mind it actually, what do you good people think.

Leon :thumbsup:

Hi Guys thanks for your comments, I have already processed this one and it came out a treat, I was just experimenting in stacking Raw frames, and stuffing around. :whistle:

Just trying to show what a Raw looked like from modded camera, without any processing at all, But I will give it a shot at the settings you suggested.

Many thanks guys, have to admit it is a bit different than the run of the mill images, I will get back to normal when the clouds part, hopefully

with no/little processing that is fantastic! chalk one up to the modded 5D, (and obviously the person on the end of it)
