Another Lagoon - M 8 Canon50d mod, SW ed100

[gb44 (Glenn)]

Hi folks
Its quite enjoyable to do some wider angle photography... after being constrained with a f10 SCT. M 20 and M 16 are favourites.

This is 24 x 360s subs @ ISO800 with modded Canon 50d , IDAS LPS P2 filter set on custom WB including the filter, 12July2019, in poor seeing and with some moon, from light polluted Gold Coast. Used SW ED100mm refractor piggybacked on the SCT.
PHD2 guided processed in ImagesPlus and PS2

I include the original stack with minimal dig development and the crop of M 8 with some enhancement(?)

Thanks for looking

Nice Lagoon Glenn, the ED 100 is very capable instrument. I have an 8" SCT which I would like to use more for smaller Galaxies etc. but it seems to vignette badly.
Have you experienced this issue with yours?
Cheers,
Tony

Thanks guys.

Tony, no, I havent seen vignetting with my scopes. Maybe I havent detected it since I nearly always use flats...
