M83 with 6RC
Hi all,
Having acquired a 6RC many months back, I have finally gained the confidence to collimate it (still rather badly however), and image with it. First (proper) image is M83. Guiding was very terrible as I think I need to use a guide scope rather than an OAG due to the lack of stars that are appearing in the guide field of view.
Stars are in the best focus I could achieve and I still feel they are quite bloated. FWHM on Pixinsight says 7.133px. Not sure how to change that to arc seconds (pixel size was 3.76, focal length ~1370mm). I definitely need to improve that somehow.
