Hi Martin.
Great capture. I am looking forward to imaging under dark skies but you may have noticed our clear nights seem to be syncing with the coming of the full moon for some time now. I have heard you can get good Ha data even with the moon out, so going to try if it's clear.

Yeah, the 224MC is mainly a planetary camera but I do find it useful for smaller DSO compared to a DSLR, adding either the UV/IR cut or L-Pro filter depending where I am & how dark it is. I actually haven't got around to imaging with just the cut filter from here in town yet - the moon is always there. I am saving for a 533MC Pro with a sensor size in between the 224MC & DSLR then maybe a larger sensor later, after a new mount!


Cheers,
Mark
