I think that even with your camera stopped down to max you would still over saturate your camera, blind yourself and possibly ruin your camera lol.

I've been reading a bit on this as well as I'm have a hard time getting this right, and from what I've read so far you are better of with a mag 4-6 G2V star so as not to saturate the pixel. otherwise your calibration will be off.

I've downloaded a trial version of CCD Autopilot as it has an automated calibration routine for G2V as well as a automated filter offset routine. The trial is 60 days and is fully functional. I'll probably end up getting the professional version, a bit exy but what isn't in this game.

Cheers
Sandy
