This is a short animation of comet Jacques made on Sep 2nd. It is put together of 55 subs (30s iso 1600) taken with Canon 500D DSLR and a Skywatcher 200p on a HEQ5 (unguided). The wobbling of the stars is (probably) due to PE in the mount.

Amazing! How long were you filming to get that? 

[Knight of Clear Skies]

Excellent work.

absolutely trucking! great animation.

Very nice movie!

Also, Seeing that strong wobble actually surprises me a little. I have the same mount, and have been struggeling with the same issues - but i've always thought it was my guiding at faulth.

If you say that that much wobble might be PE in mount i think i'll have to give PE correction another go and see if it helps any on the guiding - as now it tries to guide all over the place, lol.
