if you can get that much out of it with only a levels and curve stretch. Dare I say it, but the scripts in pixinisght take all the pain of calibrations away!
Yes just mucking around in Lightroom and CS2.

I've got a lump on my head and a nice big bruise on my shoulder from being driven into the ground by the wheelbarrow handles of my scope, and then run over by it!
