Mixing subs with slight temp. changes

#1

Post by Baskevo »


Hi guys,

Quick question that I hope someone has the answer to... A few of my subs are 16 degrees while the rest are 15 degrees. I am guessing this is due to the ambient temp. or something, and the camera temp. went up to 16 degrees for an extended period of time during the exposure. While it's only a sub here and there, they are 5 min. subs, so I'd prefer not to waste them.

Does it harm the image if I include the 16 degree subs in my stacks? All of my calibration frames are for 15 degrees.

Thanks!

None whatsoever. All of your subs; lights, darks, dark flats, flats should all be within 5° C of each other. 1° will not be noticed.
