Keyhole nebula
Thought I'd share this pic from last night. I'm not stacking or processing images yet, but happy to have the camera grabbing an image through the tube!
I think today is my one week anniversary with my telescope and when i think of it that way, I'm quite happy with the progress I've made, thanks in large part to members here.
This is a single exposure (sub?) at iso 1600 for 30sec on a canon eos550d, through a skywatcher 200pds on a heq5pro.
Are there any tips on focussing on faint objects that don't register on liveview on the camera? I had a few goes at omega centuri last might, the only way i got close to focus was to slew to alpha cent, focus on that, then slew back. Is it generally easier if you're previewing on a computer screen?
Anyway, here is the pic! I've a long way to go and wouldbe keen to hear feedback!
