Seems like you overdid it a bit and killed some of the dynamic range. Were you trying to make it more colorful and beat down the noise?

Did you mean you stretched the histogram too much? Well, maybe... The capabilities of the smart telescope's sensor are such that the dynamic range itself is flawed; essentially it's just a "toy")) I'm actually surprised that it shoots on its own; at first impression it seemed like it was pulling images from some shared database on the internet))))

Yeah, for now there's no opportunity for trips... to shoot with the Samyang you need to go to a dark zone, but either work makes it impossible to organize this outing during the week, or there's no sky :((( For now I'm messing around with the Dwarf in the yard at the dacha near the city...
