My first attempt at imaging.

Hi all

here is my first attempt at imaging using a Nexstar 5SE & a Neximage 5

Software iCap 2.3 & Registax 6.1

Hope to give it a try with my SW 8" Dob later this week.

That looks awesome Graeme!

I have a Nexstar 5SE too and am looking into buying a Dslr camera. I have a webcam a friend kindly sent me and I need to master that too.
Still I think I'll buy a canon - just the price range yet to settle on! Love your image!

Thank Astrochick, I have a Sony NEX5T & a T adapter as well but thought I would be best to master the WebCam style imaging first.

That has turned out pretty good Graeme! MUCH better than my first dozen or so attempts at planetary imaging :)

Nikki, I would also recommend getting a Canon for Astro work. I have a Nikon for general purpose photography, Canons are just easier to mod are companies that make Canon specific clip on filters so that is another bonus.

Thanks Colin, on holidays this week so hoping to give Saturn ago if we get some clear skies.
