Hi Entropy,

If that was a 50 minute sub then I think your alignment and guiding may be fine. I usually go 5 to 10 minutes max. Try this, say 12 by 5 minutes and stack. I am not sure what your camera gain settings do so maybe someone else can help here and give you the best settings.

I have posted a Lagoon stack of 3 by 5 minute subs. On this night my scope was dripping with moisture and the guiding consequently was very bad. After 3 subs i gave up and went home coz i forgot my dew heater. So this image suffers from bad guiding, not enough data and a wet dewey lens.

Anyway good luck

Paul
