A quick M7

Howdy
While waiting for Corona Australis to transit, I did a quick session on M7 beforehand , rather then muck around imaging Corona Australis only to do a meridian flip.

2x10 mins ISO200, MPCC coma corrector, modded 350D, no filters.
I think I have the tiny planetary nebula M 1-30, indicated in full res. crop image

Full frame full res. image here

I cant believe how well the MPCC coma corrector works, was lots of coma before I got the Baader MPCC

Fancy, I nearly did that last night too as a first up quicky instead of the Sgr A...well quicky isn't the word RGB = 60 60 60min is a quicky for RGB but it's bluudy more like 3.5hrs or more to actually do with finding, framing and focusing etc

Very good M7 mate, I like it!

Thanks mate
Its fun to sometime be able to get something without hours gathering the data
Also with the offaxis guider, usable stars are plentiful in this area of sky.

Very nice well done I amazed at the number of stars captured in a 10minute sub from a DSLR compared to a 10 minute sub from my OHY8

maybe I should have kept the 350d
