After last nights problems with DSS I changed the camera to my standard un-modded Canon.

Same area of the sky around the Veil.

This is the best 80% of 202 30 second subs.

Stacked in DSS with no issues.

Polished up a touch in PS 6.

Youve nailed the focus there Graham

 

I stripped and re lubed the mechanism which helped as the old grease had set a bit. I also fitted a larger wheel (rifle scope parallax wheel) to the focus knob which helped with finer focusing.

You made a good job of it Phil.

I got the FWHM down to 3.6 in BYE.
