Hi Paul,

I use the Starizona CCD calculator to determine the exposure length. For instance these subs, the calculator says that the ideal exposure is about 3 minutes. One day I'll do a comparison of 3, 5 and 10 minutes subs on something faint to see how much detail is being lost.

Of course if you have dark skies...

Cheers
Stuart
