Ross.
Thanks Ross. The Sony is basically the same performance with subtle differences to the Nikon D800e in a smaller package. A bit easier to focus with the high quality electronic viewfinder, a bit brighter, auto white balance works much better and images are a bit noisier (still not much noise) but with higher contrast. Otherwise essentially the same.

Why the use of the long exposure noise reduction? Are you finding better results with the new camera than with software processing?
The air glow was quite noticeable on several nights. Perhaps its like that there most nights. One night when there was aurora in the south the airglow was super green.

With regards to long exposure noise reduction I have been told you can get better results with long exposure noise reduction off with the Sont. I have taken with and without but didn't really check it too hard. The Nikon D800e had a small amount of amp glow so I tended to use long exposure noise reduction to get rid of that. I'll have to check it out.

Thanks Fred. Airglow is an interesting phenomena.
