Galaxy Vista from NexDome South Coast

Giving my new NexDome a workout due to the continuing great weather and clear nights on the NSW south coast

Here’s some galaxies capture over the past 3 nights

NGC 5128 Centaurus A Galaxy
M104 Sombrero Galaxy
NGC 3521 Bubble Galaxy

Scope: 8” f5 Bintel GSO newt
Mount: EQ6-R pro
Camera : ZWOASI2600MC set in Ascom to Highest Dynamic Range (Gain 0 ) cooled to -12C
No filters
All images 3 minute dithered guided subs
Integration 2 hours to 3 hours
PHD2 Multistar guiding 0.70 to 0.80 arc sec total rms
Payload 15kg
Goto and Nav EQMOD and Ascom Stellarium
Framing focus and capture APT
Stacked in DSS

Included some cropped version to view fine detail and to show how good these new generation OSC cameras can perform in a basic entry level GSO newt
