Here's a few images I took last night with the Canon Powershot, tripod mounted.
They were all taken at ISO 800.
I used the full 12x zoom on Eta Carina taking 57 pics x 3.2secs, if I had the patience I reckon I could tweak a bit of colour out of it.
12x zoom again on Lyra, 52 x 3.2 sec, and you can just about make out the Ring Nebula. I must take this one again using the Barndoor so I can do 15 second exposures, I'm sure I can get a proper "ring".
Scorpius is composed of 30 x 10 second shots.
I used DeepSkyStacker and PaintShopPro.
I know they're grainy and stuff, but I'm pleased to be able to get pics like these out of a compact camera.
