First light with new QSI683 - Eta C.

Decided to move up from my QHY8 pro to QSI683.

Eta Carina, 1.5hrs LRGB with Astrodon filters and put it together with PI after watching a few of 'Harry's' PI videos.

It's not perfect but I'm rather happy with my first effort.

I can now see why luminance is king :-) Cant wait to attack a galaxy or two.

Looking good Dave and yes galaxies are so much fun to image, they are the real deep sky objects

Very nice image Dave, and congratulations on your new camera! It is a great piece of equipment.

P.S. Now you just need to update your signature

Seems to me to be a bit too red Dave but otherwise a great first light. Congratulations!

The filters of Astrodon are excellent .I believe that you had to work to manage the enormous amount of signal that you have collected!
congratulations,
Fabiomax

Yes, I might have another go balancing the RGB.
