Thanks Rob, Odille and Matt for your comments. I hope you all get a good view of this comet the second best I have seen to Mc Naught.

Odille try different ISO settings as different cameras perform differently. I would start with 10 second exposure. If you have not got a tracking mount you are limited, as longer exposures will just blur the comet more. Wide field is good, to minimise drift during exposure and at widest field of view you may be able to use 20-30 seconds.

Hope that makes sense. All the best.
