First Light with new (to me) QHY183C

Hi all,

Haven't posted in a while. But had a chance to test out my new to me QHY183C and AStromechanics EOS adapter for my canon 50mm lens. I didn't stress about framing so it is far from perfect, I was also testing the lens at f2.8 and I'm suprised how much coma there is (I heavily cropped), I had thought that since it is smaller than APSC I'd get away with it. So next time I'll stop it down to f4 and that should reduce both the bloat and the coma. I'm happy with how much easier the stacked image is to work with compared with my DSLR, the reduced noise of a cooled camera is awesome.

1 hour of 3 minute subs at -15C.
