First Light Frame M63 1x 240s OO VX10 + 26C Hypercam

[fwm891]

Apart from a few frames getting things focused and centred this is the first light image frame for my new Orion Optics (UK) VX 10 @ f4.8 Baader MPCC and Altair Hypercam 26C. UVIR cut filter. Guided with 8x 50 finder guider conversion ASi12MM.

Captured as a FIT frame in Astroart 8.03, converted to Tiff in PI and then processed and cropped for framing in Photoshop CS3.

1x 240 second sub

Very promising indeed for a single frame.  Are the spacings quite right on the MPCC - star shapes etc ?

I don’t think so. Still some fettling to do yet with the setup but quite happy atm.
