M42 Orion on a hot night

Hi All

Heres the results of lasts nights efforts.

It was a hot clear night so the camera was running a bit warm, ISO 800 showed lots of noise but dropping down the 400 helped a lot. I had to bin a few frames that were over 40 degrees due to high noise.

Also, I was shooting from Kuitpo Forrest which is nice and dark but Orion was over the city so I still had some light pollution to contend with so I kept my shots to 2 mins each.

It was also the first time I have tried my new SW field flattener, Im happy with the results so far but haven't pixel peeped the corner stars yet.

49 subs at 2mins
Iso400
Canon 600D

Regards
Chris
