Thanks Trevor and Andrew!

I appreciate the wishes, and the tips Trevor, next time out I will push up the gain as described, I think I try for too much "realistic" view on the PC screen during capture and therefore it looks dim as it is underexposed.

Also, from memory, Saturn was a bit low so during this capture so I think some of the dimness was due to the extra atmosphere and looking at the original capture AVI some heat haze off the nearby house. Next capture will hopefully be from dark sky site without this issue.

I have the histogram in K3CCD tools and use it too infrequently, I will apply these tips and see how it goes.

I really appreciate the help, the only way is up hey?

Cheers for now,

Chris
