Things you can nail are focus & tracking. To try afterwards with software is folly.

NASA made that pretty clear when they fixed Hubble.

Starlight is free... hence you can have a lot of fun trying to understand why focus/tracking isn't perfect, and making adjustments to make them so.
Thanks again Peter,
Yes I only have to look at my own work and do a quick comparison to a good image of the same target to see I have a way to go and as I mentioned I really enjoy the challenge it give me something to aim at and yes I would rather work with good data than try and fix not so good afterwards.
