Giiba, I see that you put 14/3.5 in there! So do you find there is about the same amount of trailing with the 7-14 at 14mm and the 14-42 at 14mm?

If you could do so, would you do one for the 14-42 at 42mm and the 40-150 at 40mm please? Thanks!

I was just toying for the score. As far as the spreadsheet is concerned 14 is 14 is 14 but in reality there can be slight fov differences between lenses of the same focal length. But that shouldn't change max time significantly.

40mm, 42.5,mm and 45mm are all 6s after rounding so 42 will be as well. I plan to add the 40-150/2.8 only the score would differ based on aperture.

I was wondering how much the difference would be between the 42/5.6 of one lens versus the 40/4 of the other lens.  I thought your score might relate to how many stars can be captured based on the aperture of the lens
