ASI294MC Pro plus 70-200 Nikon lens 20-02-2020

[fwm891]

The observatory stayed closed due to wind last night but it gave me another chance to use the ASI 294MC Pro with my 70-200mm f2.8 Nikon lens with an IDAS NB-1 filter.

Orion was shot at the bottom end of the range at 70mm the others at circa 100mm. exposures ranged from 30s to 180s. quite a few subs were lost to clouds but I was pleased with the CEM25P mount's tracking. All subs were unguided which given the windy conditions I felt was good. I need to shoot some calibration subs for these images at some stage.

The image of IC1805, IC1848 plus 2017 T2 (Panstarrs) had 60s and 180s subs. The others were 30 and 60secoonds.

The grouping of IC405, IC410, M36, M37 and M38 is probably my favourite for the night.

Both above were slightly cropped but the Orion image is full frame.
