| Comments: | Finally able to try out the Cheshire-collimated Meade 152ED. I think I've got it pretty close now, but it still looks like it could use a tweak. And, I need to figure out where the reflections are coming from (quite evident in the Pleiades image). All images with modified Canon 350D at ISO1600 with a 0.63 reducer, each raw exposed for 180 seconds. I caught some as yet unidentified asteroid(?) in the Pleiades image - can't figure out which one though... Update: The asteroid seems to be 162 Laurentia! Thanks for the quick response from the gang over on QCUIAG! :) |
