A problem with flats

All
I seem to have a problem with flats. I use a Lepus reducer on my LX200R and is shows some pretty good vignetting. So flats are very necessary. Normally I dont seem to have issues but on the Sombrero I seem to be getting a sort of bas relief effect when I combine


I've uploaded examples of:
  • Flat master - sky flats (20 subs)
  • Sombrero Raw - uncalibrated
  • Somebrero - Calibrated
  • Sombrero - Mean combined
I've tried several with ADU ranges from 15K to 50K - the best I can seem to do is around 45K, though I normally use 24K with the 8300 cameras

Thanks for any help

Dan
