Well done for sticking with it, well worth it.

Last weekend was first time I've dug into NINA's Advanced sequencer and was really impressed how well it communicates what its going to do next based on refocus criteria, time to next target (including local horizons and object elevation etc in logic). Surprisingly powerful.

Ok, sounds like a useful bit of software.

FOV is what the QHY247C and FSQ @f/5 gives for single panel. Still waiting on some adapters to have a go at f/3.7 with the reducer.

Perfect FOV for this target then

Really enjoying the higher QE and FOV the CMOS camera gives over the old QHY9 (KAF8300), smaller pixels suit the refractor, and stars seem bit easier to get natural colour too. Maybe just shorter subs and different well depth. Having fun!

All sounds very positive
I'm keen to get a smaller pixel camera at some stage myself, as when the seeing turns it on at Eagleview, I feel I am not getting the best resolution with an image scale of 0.84"/pix, I'm thinking I'd like something around 0.5"/pix
