Hi Alberto;


Very nice images.


I'd love to know some technical details (focal length, exposure times, number of stacked frames etc.) on each image when you have caught up in your sleep.


Thanks very much for sharing..

Hi Mark,

thank you for your comment :-).

They are all done with DMK 31 (1024x768) including M3.

In addition (for M3 only) i took even the RGB channels using the DBK31 (same CCD size).

No help from the Canon EOS.

They were taken with the configuration that you can see in the middle of the home page of my site:

OTA Celestron C8 reducer 3.3 +DMK for the recording guided with the MTO 1000 + DBK in monochrome binned 2x2 mode.

I launched 2 separate Astro IIDC applications using 2 cameras attached to the 2 firewire ports on my G4 laptop (firewire 400 + firewire 800)
