Blending different camera exposures

Hi guys,

I couldn’t really find a useful workflow description to blend images by 2 different cameras with different values and image types in Photoshop or Startools (don’t want to get into Pixinsight yet).

Here is what I’m trying to achieve:

I’ve got a Baader modded Canon 450D and a Stock Canon RP. The 450 takes exposures through a Dual Narrowband on a 50mm f/1.8 while the RP is taking broad spectrum through a 70mm f/4.

How do I blend the final stacked images of both into a single image so that the narrow band data augments the broad spectrum in a meaningful way and I end up with a final image that combines the smoothness at high ISO of the RP with the colour and contrast gained from the narrowband shots of the 450?

Looking forward to any suggestions or ideas for further reading.

Cheers
