NGC3372 mosaic

I started using n.i.n.a. almost exclusively now, this is the first attempt at a sequence framed and captured with it.

I had intended to catch the gem cluster as well, but I missed. This is all captured on the 11th the other day in Melbourne.

I've got the sequence saved so I can redo it and compare when I get around to modding the canon and can use it with some filters.

4 panels, each 20 x 30sec ISO800, with darks and flats.
Canon 60D, baader coma corrector, Vixen 200mm F/4

The panels themselves came out pretty well considering the moon, but after stitching it all together in pixinsight I noticed a bunch of pinched stars along the borders of the overlap, and a lot of distortion. Also not a lot of red, but I expect that will improve with the modification of the camera.
