Rosette in Ha

I tried to get this target with my unmodded Canon without any success.
So I had to try it with my new QHY268M and I love it! :-)
This is only 4 suns, 600 seconds each before it was getting too low. Our roof is getting in the way.
I have to go back and add some color, not sure if it will happen this year.

Mount: SW HEQ5 Pro
Scope: SW ED80
Imaging camera: QHY268M
Guide camera: ZWO ASI120MM mini
Filter wheel: QHY CFW
Software: APT, PHD2, DSS, PS
4x 600s at 56 gain, -5C in Ha.

Excellent result with really fine detail
These latest QHY and ZWO APS-C sensor Mono and OSC cameras are producing superb images across a wide range of scopes in all types of sky
Well done !!

Cheers guys, very stoked with it.
Can't wait to add some color to it but might need to wait till next season.
Still have to learn how to do the LGRB bit as well.

Good on you, I had tried with my Canon and left a note on my directory folder that I need more data and a dark sky location before even trying to attempt it again. Now I want a Mono camera.
