Well I decide to try for M20 last night,here's a 1 hour exposure,6x10minute subs stacked. Camera - SXV-H9C shot through the ED80 and guided with the C11.
All coments welcomed !
Nice Louie, interesting to see a "different" sort of colour to that which my DSLR (and others) spits out.
Get into M42 now, it is on the "other" side.

Any chance telling us where it's set up.....might do a drive by....lol
You said your processing skills may need a touch up...can anyone help...maybe send a few of us the images or final stacked image via email and see what we all can do...then give you the important feedback you may need.
are you sure its in the processing and not some settings in the camera that are giving you the unfamiliar colours? every image you get great detail and nice round stars so tracking and focus are spot on but its the colours that seem to be just different
does any one else in this forum have your camera or are you out on a learning curve all by yourself?
I don't know Narayan , doing a day time shot using the setting I use you get a good balance in colour ,which is what is recomended . We'll have a look next meet mate and see what we can come up with. I must say that what I see on my laptop is a lot better than what I see after I upload the image,show you what I mean when I see you next.
Thanks Tony, don't know If beeing so low would do that mate , would effect the sharpness I guess. Anyway I'll send the file and guy's please post your results !
I think your lack fo blue is due to an atmospheric effect at lower altitudes called "atmospheric extinction". Atmospheric extinction is caused by the scattering or absorption of light by molecules or other particles and seems to have most effect on Blue Light and some on Green. Anywhere below about 40 degrees starts to suffer from this phenomenon and its why CCD imagers do more time in the blue channel when imaging objects lower.
This effect can throw off color images and give images with more red in them and would explain why there is so little blue in your image.
