Guest peter shah Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Ive been doing some real extreme tweaking of the kit, the ccd has never been flat in the camera so i took upon myself to sort it, very gently teasing the sensor flat....enough to make most cry at the mere thought. Its very close but at F3.8 the focus only needs to be out by 30un for it to show up on the AG. I still need to refine my polar alignment, im getting a little rotation in the field. Anyway....Grabbed this shot of Markarian's Chain, very quick shot 1 hour of luminance, 10mins of red 9mins of blue and 7mins of green, im still planing on getting some more colour data for it. also just to show the detail (not there is much to show in these objects) a full res shot of The Eyes, it difficult to see i the wider frame. Thanks for looking Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest peter shah Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Thanks everyone, hopefully if we get a clear spell, i want to get some more colour data and build up the signal, I dont think it will bring much more to it but it should smooth things out a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
