Hi all,

The other night, managed to get a first light with my new 50D. I am a bit concerned, as there is some horizontal banding on the images, but I am not sure if this may have been caused by the "entanglement" of all the cables (USB, power etc...) due to my rush to beat the clouds. I will need to do a more formal 2nd light next time I have some more favourable conditions.

Anyhow, my first test image was of M20.

6x 8min lights, 9x 8min darks @ ISO800 with the 50D and Hutech IDAS P2 LPS filter on the ED120. Stacked in DSS and a quick process in PS3.

The second image is one of the subs indicating the banding.

Thanks for looking and would appreciate any comments.

Cheers

Daniel
