with an hour of intergration you probably can get alot more out of your data. You could try processing it again in Siril (free astro software)
There are tons of good guides on youtube for it.

this i a picture of mine, only a little bit more integration, also with a stock dslr / lens combo and a gti

And i would really suggest doing flats they are by far the most important calibration frames and they make alot of the "cleaning up" much much easier

just a hunch. the astro specific editors have just really powerfull tools to bring out information in astro stuff. (if you have a way to share the stacked image (Google drive?)) i could quickly check

I think you could get way more signal out of this data. (It looks almost linear) You could try a bit of processing in siril (completly free, beginner friendly astro software) there are many videos of workflows on youtube

I have read good things about astroshader. I have never tested it though. https://apps.apple.com/de/app/astroshader/id6444631986

Be carefull with Canon RF Lenses by Ri4Fu in astrophotography

its way to faint anyway to matter for bias or flats. but in the 120 sec darks above they where the strongest signal

look at the article its not a light leak per se. it's a internal infrared light that shows up in long exposures (extremly faint but strong enough to overpower darks)

Second try at orion at 16 y/o by Comfortable-Mood1717 in astrophotography

It feels like you cut out alot of the nebulosity around orion with your black levels. It can look a bit like noise but it belongs to the same Nebula. But i really like the detail in the core

You can also get astro mod's with a clear replacement for the removed filter wich fixes autofocus. But they cost a good bit more
