LRGB and RLUM-RGB; 00:35 UT:
Yellow lum channel (Y), Y-RGB in light and strong deconvolution:
Yellow: Shutter=15.11ms, Gain=489, Histogramm=90%, Noise=4.9546504, 3110 frames.
R: Shutter=15.11ms, Gain=792, Histogramm=86%, Noise=10.744064, 2142 frames
G: Shutter=15.11ms, Gain=759, Histogramm=92%, Noise=9.6309395, 2518 frames
B: Shutter=15.11ms, Gain=786, Histogramm=90%, Noise=10.408668, 2771 frames Standard and lowered gamma (the bright-brown stream looks interesting - and how it "hooks up" to the darker stram in the south belt):

Jupiter moons, guided (on Jupiter itself) methane band shots - 15 sek x ~100, 50 min timelapse:
Methane band caught only 10,5 mag star and no inner moons (but they may have been transiting somewhere). At 15 sec
exposures DSI III Pro at f/10 + bin 2 slightly overexposures Jupiter in that band :) Gain/exposure time test for L filter (IR/UV Cut) and Basler Ace / ICX618:
At max gain and very fast framerate the nois is very big and the stack is grainy (equaly deconvolved). From 10 ms up the quality is much better. In winter I used max gain and 30-40ms exposures on Saturn and that wasn't so noisy - so that fast framerate also clocks the CCD much over public sheets (60 FPS) so that also must add some readout noise.
Low readout noise seems to be the key. Maybe when sCMOS or EMCCD go cheap (2 years or more?) they will kick out CCDs from planetary imaging giving < 1 e- readout noise? :)
