Sagittarius Starfield

Just a test image using the Bhatinov mask for focus. Darkest place in the sky I could find from the light poluted backyard. Mask seems to work a treat, thanks Strongman Mike .

Hi Bill, Focus looks OK but guiding looks like it could do with some work.

It does too Doug. The target was almost overhead and I don't think the EQ5 handles that too well. I changed the settings on PHD too, might put them back to where they were. I adjusted the backlash on the drives a while back, might not do any harm to check it again too.

Cheers
Bill

Bill,
Looks like you got the focus right to me. The mask seems to work fine.
