Enjoyable wide field perspective Mick. Are you masking the object before noise reduction or is it performed over the entire image? I would expect to see greater detail in the galaxy even at short focal length. If you want to get some detail back, try registering (aligning) the image of the galaxy you took through LX200 @ 6.3. Then blended it back in with photoshop. The longer focal length will get dust lanes back into the wide field object for an impressive view.
