M42 and Eta from Barambah Camp

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Taken at Barambah Dark Sky Camp.
I used my Canon Powershot S3IS mounted on the Ioptron Cube.
They're rather noisy but you can't expect too much from the little camera.
Eta Carina Nebula 8x15 seconds.
M42 11x30 seconds.

Hi,

Thats a great effort from a point and shoot, I especially like the Eta shot. Is that the cube that can be put in EQ mode?

It can go EQ, but you need to buy a kit. Mine is strictly Alt Az.

I think that's terrific Jeanette, mind if I put them on the Barambah website?

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Sure Randall.
I only wish they were of better quality.

They're heaps better than my "Barambah at night" photo.
