Yep, the Mallincam shows all the brighter Nebs in full colour live but the chip is too small and I want to start going into more dedicated imaging next year.
The mallincam has provided me some wonderfull views in colour in real time that rival DSLR's in one tenth the exposure time but lack the resolution and fine detail so post proceesing is not very advantages but for real viewing with the kids or the punters it can't be beat, but now its time to start getting more resolution and cleaner images for me to start mucking around with, I will never sell the mallincam as my daughter and her school love it.
I will probally go a cooled CCD camera next.
I went from visual observer, to video, next long exposure, long focal length, narrow band for the burbs, I am serving my apprenticeship well and don't want to be a sissy like AlexN says.ha ha
i got NGC 1365 up on the CRT now. Its one of my favourites, I love the two spiral arms and the way they sweep back, I always pop over to have alook at this every night if its up.
Next target will be NGC1316.
Matt.
