First Light for Mallincam Universe


Magellan Boy

Recommended Posts

Got to try out the other of my two Mallincams last week - the 'Universe'. This camera is aimed more at imaging than the live viewing experience of the Xtreme. Here are my efforts:


 


The Rosette Nebula on the 4th March 2014. It is a single 15 minute exposure taken with the Mallincam Universe camera at 16 dB gain through a TS 80mm f/6 triplet APO, with TSFLAT2 field flattener and an Astronomik CLS-CCD filter on an NEQ6 Pro mount. No guiding, flats, darks or bias frames were used. Processing was done in Nebulosity 3, Elements 7, GradientXTerminator and Astronomy Tools.

The Great Nebula in Orion on the 3rd March 2014. A stack of two 4 minute exposures taken with the  Mallincam Universe camera at 7 dB gain through a TS 80mm f/6 triplet APO, with a TSFLAT2 field flattener and an Astronomik CLS-CCD filter on an NEQ6 Pro mount. No guiding, flats, darks or bias frames were used. Processing was done in Nebulosity 3, Elements 7, GradientXTerminator and Astronomy Tools.
