Thanks Dennis. Yes it was a bit frantic at times. Once thing I'm still unclear about is should I be using that Astronomik L filter on my nosecone as a 'dust-bunny protector' for the chip. As far as I know, this L filter is just a UV/IR cut filter with another name but the RGB filters I use are already UV/IR cut...In which case I'm getting a double up of IR/UV cut...Or that's how I'm looking at it in any case. I don't want to waste valuable light!? Any advice in this area gratefully accepted!
Thanks Trevor. When I see a big fat, wide coal black CD that means to me it's been overprocessed. If I can't get a nice thin line & still maintain control on the amount of noise/grain on the globe I'll delete the data, no questions asked.
I had a couple of dry runs, just to test myself regarding camera settings & I'm still unclear as to what I should be really doing. I previewed each filter & fiddled with gain levels & found at my optimum FR (F15 based on 30FPS) I ended up using (by eyeballing the histo) a 55% histo for all 3 filters by giving R & G 55% gain & B 85%. The only other thing I can think of is to drop back to 15FPS on the B with a lower gain level.
