Thanks...but to clarify, I can see why you may have thought this was taken with a QHY183c...it was not (I was simply referring to another camera used that evening..plus the text on the linked page also has the details )

It was my "old faithful" ....a SBIG STX16803....a colour CMOS chip is not a good choice for 5nm bandpass filters. Hot hatches are fun, but sometimes only big-block American muscle will do
