If possible leave your scope outside  for an hour to let it cool down.

Then check a slightly out of focus star at x200 a star should look like this with the circles all concentric around the central dot…..

 

 

THANK YOU FOR THAT INFO

very nice

Hi there

Here's a hours more data on the Pickering triangle 2. 40 hrs in total at 120 seconds. stars slightly streaking need to get a reducer, hope you like it here it is

Your Jupiter image is a little blurry.

How do you thermally acclimate your scope ?

And how does collimation look at x200 at perfect focus ?

A bit blurry

Could be collimation is out. Have you done a star test before imaging a planet?

Ok, there is quite a lot of noise on the image which suggests you need to stack more frames. At least a 3 min video would be ideal. Auto colour balance in Registax would be beneficial too as your colours are a bit out. Considering you have a small scope its a very good effort!

I think i did

To tell you the truth the nexter 4 se is not very good at all it always leaves blurry images and i don't know why but yes next time i will do a 3 minute video thanks for that

I'VE posted it before it was a mistake sorry

Did you use ROI to increase the frame rate? This allows you to capture many more frames increasing the chances of capturing clearer frames in moments of good seeing.

no but i will next time thanks for that bit of info

I had something similar happen with the stars when i did overkill with blurx and hdrmultiscale, not sure if you used any of those, but still like it.

i think i use noise xterminator twice with not realizing i think that's whats done it, never mind

lovely well done!!

fantastic detail love it well done

Very good image for unguided. 🙂 I assume you don't have a field flattener yet which will give you better corner stars.

It’ll help.  The disadvantage being more files to process of course. 

Have you tried some star reduction, blur exterminator or equivalent? 

Anyway, I don’t want to sound overly negative about the stars when it’s such a nice image. 

here it is with blur exterminator i guess i forgot to use it lol

And yes i have blur exterminator i use it all the time i guess it never worked very well on this image?
