Is this the infamous grid pattern?

Post by BGazing »

When GreatAttactor (Filip) kindly put some of my images through IMPPG, he commented that the my 1600MM suffers from 'grid problem' so that the finest details cannot be sharpened optimally. I kinda did not know how he spotted it, or how I could spot it...but today, when doing synthetic flat, I saw this...is that 'it', and what can be done? I guess nothing...

Why are you doing a synthetic flat? Is the grid pattern there without it?

No, at least not that I could see it. There was a bit of a gradient that I wanted to kill (and did so fairly easily).
