Hi all! I've been out of the game for some time now but nice to see familiar faces on SGL! I hope everyone is well and keeping sane and safe!
Lots seems to have changed! New cameras, new software, new lots of things! It's hard to get back up to speed after a few years. My Dad (Mick J) keeps me updated. The general image standard is now so high it seems!
I have a bit of a natural break in work and life things so enjoying some time in Crete with other half's family currently. First time using portable set-up for me and to be honest a lucky capture with the comet in the frame mostly by accident!
Approx 55 minutes total of 30s frames and some 10s frames for M42 core, ISO 400. Modded Canon 450D, Samyang 135mm F2. Skywatcher StarAdventurer.
Similar version of lockdown here so taken from city location and passing cloud but happy to just have some time to enjoy a bit of hobby time! Processing gradients wise was tricky!

ISO2000, 50x5s
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker
Processed in Pixinsight.
Lots of noise as I wanted to pull out both tails

Taken from our back garden at about midnight Friday 17/Saturday 18.
EQUIPMENT: Canon 1100D modified by Juan Fierros at Cheap Astrophotography, Canon 70-210mm f4 EF lens @ 140mm, Hoya HMC UV(c) filter, CLS EOS clip-in filter, Static tripod (Slick88).
11 x 4" frames manually stacked in PS CS4 using a new Exclusion layer for each stacked frame. Then levels; curves; Exposure; Filter - HLVG; Filter - Gaussian Blur; Hue/Saturation; Colour Balance; Channel Mixer, to name but a few!
I had to do a manual stack as DSS didn't seem to be able to recognise the stars, reporting back that only one frame would be stacked?

Hi folks,
Do you do long or short exposure to take a picture of the comet?
Plesse advise what I should set my Cannon EOS to (its an ancient camera)
I will connect to my celstron SCT 9.5” or is that too much magnification?
many thanks!
