Lagoon nebula last night.
Celestron Nexstar 11, equatorial wedge alignment, Canon 400D, prime
focus on a waxing gibbous moonlit night. Also used one of those ambient light filters on the camera adaptor. The resulting shot was a little darker, but way more detailed. http://www.aussiepeople.com.au/asign...otography.aspx Removing the darks seems to have made all the difference. Conversley, I opened the shutter on the same target and just let the telescope go with it's own tracking for fifteen minutes. (Fell asleep) Have a go at what it did! (Second image) I have no idea how to refine this tracking. I'm thinking when I get the ED80 on top, I will have to guide manually. Baz. |
