Here's one of the better shots from a 6 hour effort last Weds night/Thurs morning. Finally getting the hang of guiding, albeit manually. Didn't realize how hard it would be to find a guide star! It's a single 5 min shot at iso800 with the 350D and 10SN. Next step - learning to stack.
FANTASTIC, bit of amp glow, some noise. Need to learn to take darks, flats and bias shots in the same session so you can process your images better later. what f ratio is the scope?
The scope is F4. Whats going to produce better photos, proper post processing with darks,flats and bias shots or stacking? Or a combination of the two? I've not looked into these things yet but now I can actually take a reasonable shot, I guess it's the next logical step.
Houghy is just being picky, I would be happy with that shot, very nice.
If you want better, then you need both the darks/flats/bias, plus MORE time, either in a longer shot, or multiples of longer shots.
Darn fine single shot though just the same.
