First light with s.h. 6D + new nifty-fifty

[Adreneline]

I know star trails are two-a-penny but this my first Astro image using my new “second hand” Canon 6D and my new 50mm, f1.8 lens.

Comprises 250 x 4s images at iso1600, f1.8 captured with BYEoS. Focussed manually using the FWHM feature in BYEoS.

I didn’t take any calibration frames. All stacked in StarStaX.

 

I’m quite pleased really.

Looks good! And it shows that even Polaris moves noticeably during the night. I assume it is the bright dash on the left of the celestial pole.

Hi Nik,

Indeed it does show it quite well that Polaris is well removed from the NCP.

I was quite pleased how well the star colours show themselves - I really didn't expect that.

You'll have a lot of fun with that 6D!  Superb camera. 😊
