Hi all, got this one back in July and for some unknown reason I didn't process the image. It is 12 exposures of varying length with Astro 40D and 14" LX200 at f6.3 .

Good effort with a 40D, but you really need to get serious with that size tube, and get a cooled CCD. The res of the 40D is a bit wasted too.

Thanks Mike and Fred for your comments. Perhaps one day I will go the way of the CCD, but at this stage the 40D suits my limited processing skills. The 40D will come into its own when I get out the Tak 160mm f3.3 Epsilon Astrograph.

Yes that Tak will mak the 40d shine , but not yr images, sheesh. I am mortaly devisitated that you would cross to the woozy side given the FL you have now. You are a traitor of the true faith, burn in hell you traitor Hhgggggg

Would be better with a x5 Powermate, hey Fred

Nice shot, Lester

Put the Powermate on this and you have Freds ideal telescope

Thanks all for your comments. The diversification in people is like the differences in the night sky.

All the best.
