First Light.

I got myself a GSO 12" newt with a 3" ASA corrector and TS-Giant OAG with a qhy5L II and coupled that to an sx wheel and atik 11000.

Maxim tells me it's running at 1149mm or F3.83.

All the bits finally arrived and it stopped raining late the other night night so I got the OAG dialed in and snapped a few test shots of M8.

CCDI says I've got some droop in there and the 3.5inch secondary isn't big enough for this camera but it looks like a worker.

I have 25Kgs in counterweights on the eq6 to balance this thing Roll on the EQ8.

This is 7 x 10min Ha subs of M8 and a pic of the camera/corrector assembly.

Just levels and curves on M8.

Nice one! Good luck with the new equipment!
