M13 - Great Globular Cluster in Hercules from 06/09/2018 22,180 light years away, 145 light years wide Quite a close crop on this due to its scale in my scope, but happy nonetheless. Looks like better flats are definately helping me out now when it comes to processing. The only thing I couldn't work out is the faint fuzzy at around 2 o'clock. With a bit more research it looks like it is the spiral galaxy NGC6207 (distance 30 million light years) - and VERY faintly you can just make out IC4617 (489 million light years away) TS65Q / Modded 1200D / EQ6 Guided - 83x30s© 2018 S Fields

Thoughts on Cannon 1200d for Astrophotography?
Revilo posted a topic in Getting Started With Imaging
Hi again, Previously I asked which would be the best setup for me to get within my budget and a lot of people have stated to go for the 130pds and a eq5 Mount as a minimum. I’m now on a hunt for a good starter Digital camera most likely an slr. I’ll probably have £300-£400 to spend on the body and to get some lenses. I’ve seen people suggest the cannon 11 and 1200d. I’m mostly looking to do DSO’s. Are there any others that you recommended. Also would the mount be able to hold all of this easily. Struggle to find the max load. I’m probably going to get a piece of equipment every 6 months so I can save money. Just a side note can the eq5 handle camera equipment and 200pds ok? many thanks -
heres my Hi-res shots. the moon looked fantastic lastnight, I most enjoyed looking and imaging, I love the way the crater rays and bright areas standout when full. seeing was OK bit fazey. kit- starwave 102 classic f11, 1200d in 1:1 crop mode, and asi120mc for close ups. hope you got chance to view. thanks for looking, please leave a comment, good or bad its good to have feedback. charl. Wide, hi-res 120 frames, well as wide as I could get with a f11. Hi-res 160 frames looks better in full ,31 mb so if you have slow internet it might take a while to load. it was 64 mb but I reduced it as my internet is like smoke signals are faster. a few closer shots to show the rays and bright dust streaks. not hires 1200x920. 1 2. 3. 4.
