Thanks guys. Was good to be out there again, though it was bloody cold and i'm finding it harder and harder to motivate myself to get out there lately. Don't know if it's just the run of bad seeing or part of a natural cycle of motivated and unmotivated.

I use mono+RGB, so I capture each filter at 30fps (1/30s exposure), for about 50 seconds per channel. There's about 10-15 seconds between each channel for changing the filter, changing settings and adjusting focus.

So I'd capture about 1500 frames for each colour channel, and for this seeing, I stacked about 550-650 frames in each channel in registax.
