Centaurus-A is the image downloaded from the camera.I have attached some pics of the scope setup.B-33 was 251 sec's and Cen-A was 202 secs.Hope fully this year I will learn more about image processing.reguard's tony

Very nice pics,
I love the Cent. A, however the B33 only just shows up for me.
If you want to see how I process my pictures, go to the processing techniques section of my website.

Nice shots Tony

That wouldn't happen to be a Celestron HD-102EQ refractor you have there would it. Apart from being a bit heavy, they make a damn fine guidescope.

Works even better when you put a crayford on it

No it is an Andrews 80mm achromatic I think its an F9. I am finding out with 70 and 80mm scopes like that ity is hard to track on a faint star a 100 or 120mm woulkd be better.But they add more weight to the little EQ-5 mount. Tony
