M51 -Atik 314 2nd Light

[thenews24]

2nd go with the Atik 314. First time I Imaged with a 200mmf2.8 lens. Now I'm trying with the 80mm refractor. 39X190 sec, bin 1x1, -20c. Uv/Ir cut. DSS to Pixinsight. It was really humid and hazy seeing conditions but am pleased with results. Hoping to at more data and the soon. Thank you. Questions comments welcome.

Looks like a very successful 2nd outing.

Looks good, the outer halo looks smooth.

Nice one. Lots of outer halo showing and it's faint stuff to catch.

How exciting to see the new camera producing images. These Atiks are just a joy, such power in a small package.

I is a joy to work with. Although I miss the finer detail of smaller pixels, the batch processing is a breeze with the smaller file sizes. I am relaly itching to get some RGB filters soon

I'm curious to see how much more detail I can pick on a better seeing night.

I know the feeling. I bought my RASA in the wrong session. The amount of light pollution being caught is unreal. The raw sub of my M13 picture looks like a page from a child's colouring book!
