NGC7635 & Co

[fwm891]

First clear skies last night for over a month. This group of objects I've tried before but never had a reasonable run with no moon around. Although fog put an end to captures around 10 ish I think the data I did get was worth it.

Details:

Subs: 9x 180s, 11x300s and 10x480s 

Camera: ASI294MC Pro (gain 122 offset 30)

OTA: RASA 8

Mount: iOptron CEM60 Standard - guided with TS80 guide-scope and ASI120MM-S

Capture: SG Pro

Process: PI and tweaks in PS-CS3

Lovely image and a nice FOV. Is that a mosaic or single frame? Did you post full resolution?

@tooth_dr Thanks. Single frame, slight crop due to meridian flip not fully registering. Not full res as files size circa 60Mb but posted as png to retain better bit depth.

Thanks Francis. What pixel scale do you get when this combo?

Thats very nice Francis, something I had a go at but was not able to collect the same degree of data you have there as my scope is F7, sort of interested in one of these RASA scopes as we have the same mounts,

That will be higher on my 071. I keep wanting to order a 73mm WO from FLO but it gives me 2.27 I think it was, I thought this was a no no, but seeing your photo, i don't see any problems with a larger sec/p scale, think it's a goer before Christmas.
