The Elephant's Trunk nebula in Ha


Recommended Posts

Could I have some suggestions about other Ha targets for UK, this time of the year please.

I can use a 8" f5 newtonian, ts65 quad f6.5, canon 200mm f2.8 or a canon 135mm f2.

Was thinking of the wizard with the 8", I tried it with the ts56 quad refractor but with the 8" I will get a narrower fov and I'm thinking it will look better.

Anything in Cygnus is good!

If I was in your position, I'd be looking to use the fastest oprics I have at this time of year so you can make the most of the short nights. I'd probably go for the Canon f2.8, but not their 135mm  (the Canon 135 is a now-ancient design, and not too great in the corners). And as im sure youre aware, its all about the corners! :D
