M-104 + M-83 w/Canon
Hi All,
Put the Canon back on the LX200-10" at F-10 for a go at M-104 before the Moon gets too bright, and did another M-83 seeing it was around also, Pix. are M-104= 5 x 6 Min. Exp. at ISO-800 DF removed, M-83= 3 x 10 Min. Exp. at ISO-800 DF removed (did more Exp. but the guiding went off due to a passsing cloud), reasonable results.
cheers........Jim
