I thought I would post a couple of images I took back in 1988, using gas hypered Konica SRV3200 film, Nikon F2 camera body with Nikon astro focusing screen and using a waste level finder attachment for easy viewing.
The scope was a Meade 2120LX3, using a Lumicon Giant Easyguider, Lumicon Deep Sky filter and an illuminated reticle eyepiece for guiding-the first autoguiders (ST4) were just about coming out then, I think.
All I have done is use my printer scanner to scan the original prints. Exposures were 10 mins f6 for M8 and 9mins f6 for NGC5139
