NGC 7380 in Cepheus

Here is another of my adventures with the 8" Newtonian. 77 x 3 minute subs. Close to 4 hours of data from the 21st of October. I have stretched this a bit too far, but I wanted to show off the nice data in the blue channel. Hope you like it! I really like the 1000mm focal length.

Collimation or focus (or both) is a bit off. Will fix next time :-)

Large portions of the image are cropped out here due to heavy come. Hope that MPCC is arriving soon! Calling Steve! Calling Steve! :)

The same 8" I have. I have my MPCC but am awaiting a custom adapter for it -

... I'm hoping that focus will not prove to be an issue. I've read that it adds about 10mm to the focuspoint. I hope that is enough as the DSLR barely reaches focus when I attach the T-ring to the the 1.25" EP adapter. It would be typical if It didn't focus!

Unless I have my calculations all wrong, we may need to talk - but I have a solution. You have PM.
