This is my first image with my new ST80 guidescope and QHY5Lii guide camera. The month before I used a borrowed guidescope and cam and the month before that I was just doing unguided stuff so I am progressing.

I am happy how they are turning out given I am such a newbie.

I am just focusing on a star using the live view on the back on my dslr. This has the advantage of being within reach of the scope focus knob as I don't have an electric focuser. It seems to be working for now but could be as much good luck as good management.

I am making some headway with pixinsight and can do the basic batch preprocessing steps now and integration.

thanks for your encouraging comments

Astronobob, not sure what you mean about the saturation?

Cheers
Brett
