Hello fellow astrophotographers ...
I plan to add in my target about 30 hours of data because of the faint dark nebula
and i want to ask how is the properly way to do that ...
For example i can combine every two sessions together about (70 lights)
and after to combine all the combined lights together ?
The reason is to dont integrate together 30 hours of lights ... will take for eternity ...
So what settings i need when i will integrate all combine lights together ?
Clear Skies ...
You can choose to combine say 50 frames for 1 integration each with the normal automatic settings (or if you really want to change those, you can) and fully calibrated, then you load those integrations in as lights again at the end and stack those for the final integration.
To integrate all the lights at final step without any other settings ? for example local normalization rejection Or anything else?
Oh sorry, yes I would switch on LNC and MBB for the separate integrations as well.
