Thanks Ahmed & Glenn- much appreciated. Yes, the Sombrero is a beautiful target and I agree has that 3d appearance once the dust lanes are resolved. That’s the hard part I guess, getting a good night of seeing and getting the guiding good enough to squeeze the best resolution out of the scope. Bear in mind I’m imaging at just over 0.3”/pixel, but when guiding or sky conditions are not ideal I don’t get anywhere near that resolution.
The asi2600mc has a built in uv/ir filter in the sensor window hence no need to add another filter to the mix. If you’re camera doesn’t have this then it’s usually advised to use one in the image train. The best results for galaxies are always in dark sky and no filter, although in my case in the suburbs I’ll settle for a moonless night!
