Thanks Andrew - I took a few widefield (55mm lens) sighter shots last night and the separation from the adjacent bright star was OK at full res (5184 x 3456 px). At the time you took it, the nova should have been around the mag 10 mark. Maybe if you could do a crop of the area at full-res and either post it here or email it to me. I'll pm you my email address.

Cheers -
