    Very nice setup there and so handy. I like the champagne ED80 👍🏻

    IC 443

    tooth_dr replied to Rodd's topic in Imaging - Deep Sky

    You mean the big star with the square diffraction pattern? That’s caused by a microlensing effect inherent to the 1600MM. If its something else then I don’t see it, the stars look round to me on the phone here 🤷‍♂️

    The custom PDF would be a nice item to have, and it’s valid for three years

    Absolutely wonderful Ciarán. When you said you only had 30mins of red I thought you must be mad, but it just shows you - an ED80 - the most humble of scopes - produces data that in the right hands matches anything out there even at 10x the price.

    Seems to work only work outside the visible spectrum in the IR region, so definitely not suitable for visual, but a cool product on the euromillions win list of stuff to buy.

    Very dramatic and beautiful colour scheme. Great job
  7. tooth_dr
    Awesome.

    Chroma are the same. I fitted mine as per ZWO guidelines. However some folks say it doesn’t matter and others say it’s better the other way round.

    You say potato I say potato

    Well I fitted a purple Moonlite focuser to mine 😉

    I love the hardware on that telescope, stunning. Yellow is the best colour

    Does anyone have any experience with running 2 QHY268M at the same time, not one colour and one mono etc. Cheers Adam.
  13. tooth_dr
    I’ll take some credit for it too 😂
  14. tooth_dr
    Some FOV comparisons or 120MC versus DSLR too:
  15. tooth_dr
    You will have a great setup now. I wouldnt bother using the 120MC for any deep sky work personally, really small sensor/FOV and noisy.
  16. tooth_dr
    Phenomenal! How do you get so much separation between the dust and the background?
  17. tooth_dr
    Also just realised I stacked the data without any calibration files 🙄 so doing another run through APP now.
  18. tooth_dr
    Thanks @Grant do like these mono images myself too.
  19. tooth_dr
    Thanks Lee. I've about 8 hours of OSC data to add to this, so am looking forward to seeing what it does to the dark dusty regions.
  20. tooth_dr
    Cheers Adrian. I just stacked it in APP, DPP stretch, opened in PS, StarXTerminator and then NoiseXTerminator at 50%.

    9.5 hours data now, still looks a little noisy on the left side, probably due to lack of Ha signal:
  22. tooth_dr
    Looks good to me too, pinpoint detail and a delicate amount of saturation.
  23. tooth_dr
    Very nice, great FOV, lovely stars and plenty of dust!
  24. tooth_dr
    The OSC is also now £1599
  25. tooth_dr
    I agree really really great. Looks like quality data.
