First light with new camera and L glass, Orion

[Crushellon]

I got a new DSLR and a bunch of nice glass for christmas and a clear night finally rolled around so I figured I'd give it a crack at some astro. It did pretty well with the conditions, with some cool weather and a dark site it could do nicely but with the sensor at ~40degrees and light polloution the results are a bit limited.

Canon 80d & 70-200 f2.8 @ 135mm-f5.6 with finder guider on NEQ6

48 x 180sec lights @ iso800
14 x darks

Lovely shot Tim! Looking forward to more!

I also got a new DSLR. Of course now the weather is set to rain for the next 50 years...

Looks good, Tim.

What ISO setting was used on Orion with your Canon 80D?

[Crushellon]

Ah, forgot to put it in. It was iso800.

That's really nice, Tim, nice and smooth.

You have got a lot of the faint stuff around Alnilam and Mintaka in the belt.

Top job
