LBN325 - 90mm APO Test - Atik 460EX

[jcm]

This is the first time I have tested my new TS 90mm APO with an OAG and the Atik 460EX.

I picked the not so well know LBN325 in Cygnus.

Ha filter. ( does mean you can start imaging that bit earlier this time of year)

90mm APO at F5.2 , Atik 460EX

6 X 10mins exp.

No darks , flats just bias subtraction.

Looking great already for 60 mins of data.

Are you going to finish this out in narrowband or RGB ?

Probably not. It's mainly Ha. Just wanted something fairly faint to test the camera , scope , OAG etc.

Which OAG did you go with John ? The Teleskop Express one ?

It's the TS one. Seems to work OK. I also got the low profile

adapter (T2 to C-mount) for the Lodestar guide cam, which is needed to get it in focus.

Some imagers don't rate it but it worked perfectly for me.

Good to know, thanks John.

Going to hold off the OAG route for a while, I needs to get me a set of narrowband filters first.
