Thanks Justin and Paul - I keep looking at the price of a 'proper' camera and figure I've still got a way to go to hit the limits of the D800.

Thanks Kym. The site was about 120km due east of Perth, which placed Monoceros in the light dome at the end of the session at about 2:00 am. I've yet to get an SQM, but I would guess sky quality is about Bortle 3.

Thanks David,
The scope was a Tak FSQ106ED on a G11 with an 80mm guidescope.
BTW - I believe you know my brother professionally. Small world.
