First few widefield images with astro modded 600D

[Space Ranger]

Of course with any new astro kit comes a period of poor weather. But despite this I've now had a few outings with an astro modded Canon 600D (from Cheap Astrophotography) and another piece of new kit - the excellent Star Adventurer mount.

Here's a few widefield images taken with the newly acquired camera......

30sec ; f/3.5 ; ISO3200 ; FL 16mm equiv

Single exposure - 4min ; f/4 ; ISO1600 ; FL 88mm equiv

Two single exposures stitched with Microsoft ICE - each 2min ; f/4 ; ISO1600 ; FL 88mm equiv

The new kit is working quite nicely. Now if only the weather would let me use it more

Good shots. I've been planning to mod my 1100D for 4 years now... maybe this is the year it will happen.
