just out of interest, how many more subs do you think you'll need to iron out the noise?

cheers,

Thanks Russel. A lot. More than double the integration time. I'm at F/20 here which is ridiculous. It takes me 40s to have enough illumination to make a flatfield sub at approx. 8000ADU. I'm getting an 8" F/4 newt this week hopefully which will give me nearly the same field at F/8 and deeper at F/12 so I'm looking forward to that.
