Thanks Dennis. The one thing I make sure of now is that I get even illumination and don’t touch the settings after I set the camera. The other is making sure I get the panels in the shortest time possible. After stacking in autostakert I then put into Photoshop and crop the edges to remove the nasty bits. After that I then use PS again to use the auto stitch part select and then hope for the best – sometimes it also comes down to the order of selection of the frames for combining. I have noticed lately with the bigger stitches that some artefacts in the form of white pixels are introduced, but the clone tool fixes that. I then merge the layers and save the file so I can use registax 6 for the wavelets – then back into PS to trim rotate and colour, as well as the TOPAZ tweaking
