It is a lot better to software bin than hardware bin with this camera. I would argue that it is better to process unbinned (especially for decon as larger stars respond better than smaller) and then reduce resolution later on.

I think what Ray is getting at with the binning on this nebula is that there is no high contrast regions that suffer. Taking Eta Carina as an example, there are a LOT of high contrast regions in and around the Keyhole Nebula that benefit from as much resolution as possible.

NGC 1760 is a lot more whispy with some detail in the nebulosity but virtually no contrast.
