As general rule of thumb: However tempting, you should not get into the habit to leave Ghost Removal checked “just in case”. That’s because this option will tell a software to use as little information from as few source images as possible. It will operate under the assumption that blending pixel values from different exposures is a bad thing. Instead it will try to establish a single exposure as the dominant source of information, and use the rest of the exposures as supplemental sources only. The result is more noise and less color fidelity, most noticeable in the extreme ends of the dynamic range. For that reason, ghost removal should only be used when an exorcism is really necessary.
