Epic Eta with ED80.

Up early today to catch the last hour of darkness before the moon is in the way.

The field of the ED 80 and canon 1100D was made for NGC 3372, it's truly epic!!

I'm pleased how this has come up with 56 minutes of data, faint outer extensions of nebulosity clearly visible, even with the unmodded camera.

Equipment.

Skywatcher ED80, orion mini guider, orion field flattener, HEQ pro 5 mount.
Unmodded canon 1100D, 8 minute subs at iso 800, total 56 minutes.
Darks, flats and bias frames applied.
Stacked in DSS and processed in PS7.

Cheers,

Justin.
