Fox fur and Cone nebula.

Hi,

This is my first run with my second DSLR cooler, this one works properly.

Decided to try something that would test it out with 8 minute subs. I tried the fox fur and cone nebula before without it, I was wasting my time.

Without the cooler exif temp was 27 celsius on a night that was 15 outside temp, with the cooler exif was 17 and outside temp was 25. Not the cooling you get with a dedicated CCD but still useful.

8" f/4 astrograph, orion mini guider, HEQ Pro 5 mount.

Unmodded canon 1100D baader coma corrector.

8 minute subs at iso 800, total 64 minutes, darks frames applied.
Median stack in DSS, processed in PS 7.
Cropped image.

Cheers,

Justin.
