M13

[spanky]

This is my first guided image from last night and I'm happy to report it went very smoothly indeed!

Attached a pic of the graph from PHD too. It looked like that the whole time, should I be pleased?

20 x 300secs @ ISO 800

20 x darks

20 x flats

That's a fantastic image, and a very flat line!

I've got an ST80 and QHY5 guide cam, and i'm struggling to get a sharp star. What are you using to connect the QHY5 to the ST80?

BOO HOO. Another person who saw m13 last night. I could not find it even with the brilliant seeing conditions. I am really amazed at the quality pictures being taken with sw 150's. I have one and i am really inspired.

Cheers!

I used the barlow that came with the ST80 with the lens removed. The focuser is almost all the way out

If it's reasonably dark where you are, you should be able to make out a faint smudge in your finder scope! That should make it easier to find!
