ASTRO: First Light for an ML4022

I am working on a consulting project that required the purchase of a ccd
camera for some measurements. It needed to be a KAI4022 type sensor based on
the specifications so we ended up purchasing an FLI ML4022

I decided to test the Microline on my AP180EDT: I just popped the
Proline9000 off and put the Microline on and started shooting

I took some Halpha in VdB142 and went to bed. I got about 2 hours of halpha.

When I woke up it was a bit before 5 and was clear so I just aimed it at
Orion and went inside to get ready for work

here are the results after I shot flats this evening.

I like the antiblooming feature for things like M42

Like all the KAI series, it is a bit low on QE on the red end

but all in all it is a lot of fun to use the little camera. It sure is tiny
compared to "normal" astrocams
