I'm interested in thoughts, techniques and results of applying LR deconvolution processing to planetary images.
I felt the Robby made a very valid point about LR in
Asimovs thread

I have always been higly suspect of doing LR Decon on planets and am of the view that the results are from good luck rather than true LRD. The reaon being is that with a stacked/processed planetary images there is essentially no information left in the image that accurately conveys the convolution of the optics. It has all been processed out. LRD is a process that theoretically should only be applied to RAW images before any processing has been done & the optical information is still present......

He does go on to say though

However that said, the consistant results that are shown here and in a lot of other planetary images (eg Mike's) indicate that benefit can still be had by using LRD on processed images. Perhaps a "standard best guess" PSF (point spread function) is used?

Also Asimov used the LR decon in his reprocesss without using any wavelets while from what I remember (and that is open to debate somedays) DP, iceman and bird us the LR after processing with wavelet (DP light, iceman hard9ish) bird? )
Any comments, thoughts or pontifications?
