M83 first colour with ZWO1600

Hi

have been hoping for more data, but the weather...

So, best I can do for now is 126x60second lum + 59x60second colour for a total of about 3 hours. Tried to get as close as I could to the Hubble APOD as a colour reference, so it looks pretty red. The camera is low noise, so no calibration. Vignetting is an issue with the 1.25 filters, so I have cropped the image, awaiting a decent set of sky flats. Stars need work, but will do that when/if there is more data to work with.

Not a geat image, but probably enough to confirm that there is no major issue with the camera. Thanks for looking. Ray
