Just thinking that not only will the image scale be more forgiiving but blurring less noticeable when combined with a good luminance frame?
RGB is very forgiving and can be taken in poor conditions and/or binned. It is the Lum, or what ever you use for Lum, that needs to be at it's best if you want the best resolution possible...but sometimes beggers can't be choosers . Of coourse if you take your RGB in good seeing and bin 1X1 you can always then use it as a synthetic Lum to augment your actual lum
