Went out last night and got first light on my new Skywatcher 72ED. Great to be out as its been a while. Managed to get some data which I processed today. As you can see there are a few issues going on and wondering what might be the causes. Things I notice are the stars are bloated, the large stars have halo/discs around them, the detail is a bit fuzzy even though I made sure the focus and PA were spot on, it's also become quite noisy. Here's a full list of the set-up...
Scope: Skywatcher 72ED with .85x focal reducer
Mount: NEQ6
Camera: Starlight XPress SXVF-M25C colour CCD
Data: Lights 22 x 300sec, Bias x 25, darks x 25, flats x 25
