Troy and Dunk, thanks for kind words. Dunk, I followed your advice cutting down on green channel. Updated images are showing bright SPC area more prominently now.. it's been identified by Damian Peach as Argenteus Mons, a regular outlier in the early southern spring. I agree that colour ASI is very green heavy on raw captures, and very challenging to get an accurate colour reproduction. In a way I wish the DFK had comparable resolution and sensitivity.. I'd choose to use it instead.
Thanks Andras. At first I'd try to increase image scale of your videos, Jupiter does look rather small. I use AutoStakkert!2 for stacking and Registax exclusively for RGB alignment-balance-contrast-wavelet sharpening. The former produces better stacks and has a very good drizzle function for undersampled recordings (increasing size of the final image). RGB steps are important following debayering. Links to some online guides below, hope you find them helpful.
Cheers,
Seb
