Hi Geoff,

You probably need to go much less than 5 mins on the short exposures to avoid saturation of the bright stars. Try a small preview around a couple of brighter stars and run the 3d plot script. If they have flat tops then they were saturated.

You're getting decent detail for a small scope. The stars look a bit hard like they've been oversharpened?

Cheers,
Rick.
