I guess so. I'm not the sort of imager who spends countless hours trying to fix problems in "post production". De-con is not my best friend
While I am amazed at the plethora of tools that can fix eggy/bloated/trailed and rainbow stars, and then some, I've found they often leave artifacts, hence don't use them. I'd rather re-shoot the data.

Ta Paul. More data can indeed do much

But I've found unless the seeing is around 2 arc sec or better I'm wasting my time at 3300 mm with this 'scope. I have yet to attach the reducer/corrector...while it doesn't improve the seeing...it might mask the effects a tad
