My method for finding Cent A is as follows. Find Omega Cent by following a line from Hadar through Epsilon Cent. Should be easy to pick it in your finder. Continuing on this same line just over 1 finder field away from Omega, you will see a group of stars clearly in your finder. I see it as 2 groups, the group on the proceeding side making a shallow V shape pointing to following directio and a following group slightly to the South.
Use your lowest power EP to scan area just to North and following this second group and you should pick it up.
While in the area have a crack at NGC 4945 and NGC 5011.
