I use CCD stack with my tiny mono subs because it gives the most control, and fits my RAM. DL has some cool automation features which makes the whole process painless. BUT would not recomend them for DSLRs.

I am amazed by IPs power and speed with my 40D subs, you pay for quality.

Im totally with Jase on the need to pick an app and stick with it, I earlier wasted huge amounts of time hoping between apps hopeing for the magic one-button fix, familiarity and expertise with one app is the best way. I hated CCD stack until I spent many hrs with it and got to know it.
LOL so you do touch a DSLR camera Fred. In your opinion how did you rate IP for processing, do you know much about PixInsight?
