thanks
cant wait to see your efforts with longer times. If your experiences are anything like mine when I wasnt autoguiding, you might get a few shots that show trailing and then a few that are spot on. I'd say just progressively increase exposure time after shooting about 8 or 12 shots at one exposure time to make sure you've covered the worm rotation completely and see how far you can push it and still manage to collect a couple of non-trailing ones.

Not sure if this is the best way to do it but that's what I was doing. And obviously check that the balancing is spot on for the orientation of the scope towards the target, with a bit more weight on the rising side etc all stuff you know already i'm sure

cant wait to see what you can get out of that G11
cheers
