Although, there's ways of removing it. I'm working on a procedure at the moment (whenever I get time) to see if I can remove any banding present in images which are pushed 2-stops (I shoot low ISO images and therefore it's not really apparent). I figure it's a waste of time as I never do night time widefields as the original poster, but, it's always good fun pushing your knowledge of processing.

Ok thanks for that. I remember the 20D occassionally had some banding issues on some cameras- not all. It even got a name like river of darkness of something.

As I recall it was fixed by a firmware update. I think the point is these cameras are not designed to do what we are using them for but for terrestial imaging so an odd phenomenon like banding could occur.

Greg.
