Hi All,
Tried ngc-1365 last night, results herewith, LX200/10" at F-10 light capture to the Canon is low, so took 11 Pix. of 6 Min. at ISO800 and not bad (could be better) DF removed guided with ED80+MX7C, I feel that objects like this are best imaged with a cooled camera, or a lager scope, anyone else out there have any Pix. taken with a Canon of this object, my Canon is modified (just for info.).
For comparison, Galaxy ngc-253 is Mag. 7, ngc-1365 is Mag. 9.5- some two and a half times less bright than ngc-253.
cheers...............Jim
