This is less than 2 hours of M42 taken low in the east with poor seeing and no calibration frames. This was an HDR composition of 20 second and 120 second exposures at f/5.5 with no noise reduction and the only post processing some adjustment to colour saturation and contrast. I'll be taking another couple of hours of integration when I can to better bring out the background dust. I'm thinking I'm going to enjoy this camera!

Nice one, Kevin!! Pretty awesome to plug in and go like that

How do you judge seeing conditions? I'm not sure of how to do it, but I thought last night from Canberra was pretty solid based on guiding and the quick look I had?
