At 40 secs I had a histogram peaking at 30% across the base. If I pushed to 60 then it got buried in the LP glow so it's currently my best compromise for the conditions.
We'd had 4 nights in a row great weather but I was still fine tuning the scope for the first three so the 4th night was the best for both conditions and setup. Otherwise I would have gone back to it and added some more frames.
I have instead just loaded the 450D with the IR cut and cooling mods onto the scope and want to have a go at some Ha exposure to possibly add. But the weather is forecast for at least three days of wet stuff (left over Cyclone Winston) so painted the kitchen ceiling instead to keep my better half happy. Put a coat on the upgraded pier as well to pretty it up a bit.
Need to get a 2" Astronomik CLS filter or similar for the 1200D I think but my 'hobby' funds are a bit depleted at present.
