Hi Tom,

Further follow up. What RGB filter set were you using? I was just out looking 
at them and seems like they can be quite pricey (as much or more than the 
camera)unless plain Jane filters are as effective in most applications. While 
the model number of your camera will answer the question, did you go USB or 
Fire wire?

It's an Imaging Source DMK monochrome digital video camera.  Three videos of 
1000 frames each were shot at 15 frames per second through the R, G, and B 
filters, and typically the best 75% of the frames in each color channel were 
used for stacking in Registax software.

By the way, a nice "pre-processor" video-editing software package before going 
into Registax is authored right here in the Valley by Howard Anderson.  
HandyAVI does a good job of sorting frames by quality level and resizing 
videos.  It has a lot of other good features as well.
