Rough M42 widefield from the Astro 40D

Hello all,
Tracking problems plagued my M42 attempt - also the 70-200mm f4L IS + 1.4x Ext isn't a perfect marriage.

Soft stars, CA, blown out core - Baaahhh!!! Whatever!!!!

Astro 40D (running around -13ºC)
Canon 70-200mm f4L IS + 1.4x Extender
FL=280mm, iso1600, f5.6

Rough, but with a certain potential!!

(slightly)Higher Res...
