M42 again

[AndyM]

Had another go at M42 tonight. Single 30 second shot @ISO 1600.

Took loads of images but this was the only half decent one - gusty winds and intermittent cloud doesn't help much.

Interesting shot,i presume it was with the 350D ?

What scope was it with, as i would be interested to compare it to the one i took earlier in the evening with my 350D and C8 sct

That's right it was the 350D - scope was the 8" Newt with the camera at prime focus.

You've got the running man sneaking in there and the nebulosity is starting to appear. If you can manage this on a windy night I'm sure you could crank up the exposure time to 1 min. Loads more will turn up than and you've now got a nice core to use.
