Good Eta Daniel with nice sharp stars.
Looks like you have the guiding well under control now:thumbsup:
The only thing is that there is a bit too much green in this image.
See ya in 3 weeks in Snake Valley :hi:

Damn that good. Obviously the camera is quite capable of 10min subs...I thought pretty much 5 mins was the limit with DSLRs.

Although I believe the 500D noise is a quantum lower than my 450D.

Great pic.

Thanks Martin, I will give it a tweak.;)

Thanks Brendan,:) yes, I am happy with the 500D though I would think the 450D would be pretty similar and have no problems at 10 min subs.

Cheers Daniel.
