Gee, thats impressive for 1 hr in Sydney, well done.
I happen to be imaging this remotely in dark skys now, based on what ive done (assuming dark skies are supposed to make a difference
), youve done an excellent job so far with capture and processing.
Interesting you went with 7nm filters, whys that?.
You commented on the internal guide before filters on your SBIG with the pic. Ive tried this now with my new STXL6303E and after initial scepticism looking at it in the flesh, Im amazed at how effective it is. Before, even with a cooled guide cam and MOAG, I was forced to use a rotator to guarantee a guide star, but now I find quite a few and at least one always (so far) and I havent touched the rotator yet.
Even though the new guide cam isnt cooled, it is very sensitive and the built in 0.67 reducer gives a relatively huge FOV, even over 2m FL. Finally, SBIG got all that sorted, im well chuffed
