Guiding should be happening tonight I'm pretty happy as I've never had auto guiding before, all my previous images were either unguided or manually guided, the 1100D is an awesome camera noise wise it continues to amaze me every time.

Loving the results you are getting from the equipment you have at hand! (bordering jealousy )
So am I , this equipment is way past what I could afford but as I'm building this setup for another bloke I buy it at his expense and give it lots of testing

I take it for a 4" refracor, I would have to pretty much go 2 minutes for each sub to get the same amount of light onm the sensor? Just a guess - hard to compare the different types of scopes with different apertures and f stops.

Thanks a lot Bruce, I'm not real sure about how all the aperture and f stop stuff works, but I think your right. Though, if your F ratio is the same, then for the same exposure your image brightness should be similar?

Cheers
