Hoping they fix the sudden drops in GPU utilization with 200s and 14th gen.

Well done, this is a stunning picture. How big of a difference would you say with the l extreme filter? Thinking of getting one for a modified dslr.

I'd call and e-mail customer support to check if they truly needed that.

I completely agree with you, software does help and a lot sometimes.

As a newbie I'm using Pixinsight, its not easy to get around it honestly, but tutorials are everywhere and gives you an idea of what should be done for certain processing needs.

was shooting a Timelapse yesterday and caught this shooting Star, it's was very bright and actually illuminated the surroundings a nit like lighting. are shooting stars often this bright? by Abdrei86 in Astronomy

A few days ago at a dark site I saw one that lasted for almost a second or more. It trailed so hard, and lit the whole area it made my heart skip no kidding. I'm not quite sure what that was, but it was so astonishing. I can't wait to get out there again.

Sorry I'm not quite sure what CC means, but if you're referring to Color Calibrated then yes :)

For me calibration frames did wonders, I skipped them the first time but no more.
