Since getting a star tracker, I've been wanting to try taking a 4-shot PSMS image of the moon on the tracker (using lunar tracking rate).

Here are (2) 1:1 crop images of:
1) the PSMS higher-res image
2) one of the four frames that was used to make the PSMS image

There is clearly some improvement which highlights the detail we lose when using Bayer sensors.

Unfortunately, my longest lens is 200mm so the moon is a tiny fraction of the frame.

I can't think of a scenario for using PSMS for moon + landscape photos, so this experiment isn't that interesting for landscapes.
