Hi Robin, I have tried with different Sky Conditions the use of the Smart Histogram Brain Window to optimize my Altair 183C Pro colour Camera settings.

My noisy images could actually result from above empirical choices!

Cheers, Remy

HI Robin, I have performed the test on my focuser ZWO EAF, as you have specified it.
