Hi Kevin,
Further to this, as Grant has mentioned, compare your uncalibrated lights to your calibrated lights. See my attached image where I show three heavily stretched images. Top left is uncalibrated – note the gradients and the dust marks. Top right is calibrated – note it looks pretty flat. Bottom is the flat frame with a big stretch.
Not the most dramatic example because my C11 has a pretty flat field over this sensor to start with. But – I must try and get rid of that horrible splodge on the sensor!
Cheers
Ian.
