Lodestar X2C First Light
My first set of images with a Lodestar X2C & Celestron 8" CPC 800 HD at f/3.3. There was a third quarter moon present, and some skyglow.

Lodestar X2C 2nd Light
Images via Lodestar Live 0.10 on a Celestron CPC 800 HD 8" alt/az at f/3.3.
Exposures of 15-30s, and stacks of 3-8 (for dimmer objects). Not always optimal -
sometimes I was busy trying to adjust colour and it kept stacking, but didn't change the image much. Mostly colour balanced in LL, with minor tweaks to colour in iPhoto. No darks (long story).- Album created by arkosg

Lodestar X2C 3rd outing
Images via Lodestar Live 0.10 on a Celestron CPC 800 HD 8" alt/az with f/3.3 reducer. Exposures of 15s and stacks of 3-10, depending on object, using mainly mean stacking (occasionally sum stacking). A thin waxing crescent moon had already set. Conditions were clear but humid, and seeing was only OK (not particularly steady).- Album created by arkosg
