All,
I'm still trying to get a handle on using a new AO8, and getting a cloud free sky to test from. But here is an image of M51 taken from my backyard observatory under really atrocious skies.
33x300s 253mm RCOS Ritchey Chretien @ 2291mm - ST10XME/AO8/CFW10 on the AP1200. Driven by, naturally, ACP. This was also the debut image taken with Maxim V5. The guidestar used was mag 11 (gotta love 2290mm of focal length) and was guided at 1.2 Hz.
Comments welcomed.
PS: For all my whining about having to take new calibration files for ACP<->Maxim V5 at binning 4 it really wasn't that big a deal.
Regards
Bill
