I do save my stacks and final images with object name , exposure time , gain setting , location , filters used etc..
Maybe I should go back over my work in the past 18months and create a chart for cross referencing ?

I have a 2600MM and 533MM, and have imaged previously on the 533MC (so all based on the same sensor design as the 2600MC.) Personally I've found Gain 100 to be ideal for all of these cameras under all sky conditions for all targets, and I adjust the subexposure time only based on target, sky and filter. Maybe I should try Gain 0 a bit more sometime, but I've never really seen the need as I've never been dissatisified with Gain 100.
