Hi Jan-Willem, for this object I used 300 sec exposures the first session and 360 sec for the second session because there wasn't much to see in the subs. I used gain 150 and I always leave offset at the default 65 (according to ZWO, the best setting)
I haven't been using the 071 for very long so I have been trying different gain settings with different conditions and setup. I figured using the Optolong I would need higher gain and longer exposures, it's a dim target.
Without the filter I would use 90 gain (unity) or 135 or there about.
Next on the list is an HaRGB merge for the star colour. (once the moon has gone!)
hope this helps
Regards Dave
