Hi Steve,
Yep the guiding and Drift Alignment was ok, I think the mirror on the LX200R must have moved after doing the focus. Or I never had it focused correctly at the start. I am going to do a mod to the LX200R to improve the focus, however I think I was at fault by not checking it closely on the night.
Setup is:
Main scope is LX200R with 20D Canon DSLR at prime focus.
Guide scope was SkyWatcher ED80 with meade DSI for quide CCD.
Exposure was 8 x 240 Seconds
Just a pitty we where out of focus, try again another night I guess, I was supprised by the blue and orange stars in this cluster.
Se Ya
Chris
