DSI III - Round Two

Hi all
Here is round two with the DSI III. Sydney weather was kinder last night so I imaged a few favourites to try to come to grips with the new imager. These were all done on the Orion 80 @f7.5 and guided with the ther DSI.

Eta was imaged using an Astronomik LPR filter - seemed to give it a funny blue cast though so I took it off

Overall not bad but I think I stuffed up the darks (temp was dropping and I took too few) - this may be the cause of what I think is evident amp glow in a couple of the images esp Cent A.

Omega - 90s subs for a total of 5 mins
Centaurus A - 2 Min subs for a total of 10 mins
Eta Carina - 2 Min subs for a total of 10 mins
Jewel Box - 10s Subs

Pretty standard processing for the most part - curves and levels, some noise reduction and a gradient layer removal. Some colour balance changes in the Eta image (to combat the blueness)

Let me know what you think
