Re: Viltrox 13mm for astro, done better? And quite possibly a thumbs up

I've done 16mm stacked, usually 16 frames, shot at ISO 6400 and been pleased with the results. I'm just dipping my toes further into tracking.

Frankly, with f2.8 or f4, stacking is what I do. I haven't played enough with ISO invariance, so I often shoot at 6400 or 12800 stacked.

Also, I am finding that PureRaw 2 from DXO does a nice job cleaning up noisy astro shots.  I have to play more with that.
