Everyone on this site will tell you you're wasting your time imaging at 2800mm........... 🙂
Nice image.
Michael
Nope, I like imaging at 2800mm. It’s great for small targets like galaxies and planetary nebula 😀
I wouldn’t worry too much about the dust bunnies, I’ve seen much worse. Flat fielding will take care of it.
Not sure what the dark spots are.
Cheers, Ian

Hi
Cheers for the info
The std cables I see with the correct plug on the end seem a bit weedy did you make your own
Harry
Hello Harry,
I'm just using the standard cables, the plug isn't great as it doesn't go all the way into the socket on the scitech. So far its working ok, but could be better.
Cheers, Ian.

Just wondering what to power the mount with , anybody use a mount hub pro
Needed a small power station for my old mount , hoping something smaller will surfice ?
Harry
Congratulations on your new mount. I've had mine since June last year and its been great.
I use a 12volt 5amp power brick to power it, seems to do the job just fine.
Cheers, Ian

I prefer the smoother finish to the galaxies in B, the softer stars doesn’t bother me. But as Adam suggests, mask them off before applying Noise reduction or mask the rest off and use MT to tighten them up after noose reduction.
