Just a quick grab of a classic the other night with under 8mins of exposure integration! A combination of 1min, 30 and 5 second subs unguided with a Fujifilm XT 100 mirrorless camera. I used an 8 inch Newtonian on a HEQ5pro mount which I may have overloaded as after I had Polar Aligned the mount, the front tripod leg, which had been raised to level the mount, started to slip down. I thought I had tightened the locking screw tight enough, there may be other issues going on to investigate. So these stars are a bit eggy but over all, I was pleased with the result.
