Thanks Tony,

I tried this for some sh*ts and giggles simply cause at the native scale it really was just a bright blue blob and with some high clouds around I wasnt going to be getting any long runs happening with any nice results.

If I had a higher resolution camera (the Atik is only a 1.4MP) then I could try binning the final image to make it bigger, but alas, this doesnt work that well with my scope/camera combo. With a native 1.33 arcsecs/pixel, this pushed it down to 0.53 arcsecs/pixel which was expecting a bit much considering the seeing at the time.

I may have a bash at the 5x powermate one of these days on something a little larger or even this one and see what comes out the other end.

Cheers

Chris
