And it's limiting magnitude is pretty good. I can focus on M42 in live view.
Sure , M42 is a bright object. Try some thing a little less bright.
Try taking 10 by 120 second exposures with a 10 second interval using live view from the eos utility.
You will find that option is not available.
Can be done with TC80 n for 99 hours or in bulb mode for 99 years but not from the eos utility
