I did use pictures with the same exposure parameters.  I merely
(ab)used Luminance HDR for this instead of Darktable.  What I meant
was that I tried to have the same overall brightness in the
reference image as in the others, but could not guarantee that.

This is what I cannot guarantee.  I don't really know what Luminance
HDR does internally.  Tonemapping was not involved.  I fiddled with
the settings until I got a reasonable output.  (No sliders, only
discrete settings.)

I just thought that even the best tripod cannot guarantee
pixel-level matching, and that this is a problem.  And, structures
with a frequency similar to the noise (worst case would be a moire)
would spoil the calculation.

Tschö,
