82+ hours!, that's dedication for you. Excellent result Wade. in a 9 sky as well I guess those 3nm filters can suck up a lot of exposure time. The iEXOS-100 mount had an easy time with that little cat

That's very kind of you to say Jerry but the mount really is doing most of the work. I love my PMC, I would not swap it for anything else right now. Unfortunately, the dreaded clouds came in again so

Hi Pantelis You have captured some good images for the short amount of time you have been doing this. Well done. One initial comment is that perhaps you should loose the st4 cable and use pulse guidin

iEXOS-100 Guiding - Should I be worried about this?
#iEXOS-100
Totally agree with Wise Wes on this, you need to bias the camera-side weight distribution so there is a slight positive load on the mount at all times. This looks like classic mount float as it hovers

Hi James, I think that's pretty much as good as can be expected with just a single shot/sub. well done. Nice Neowise. Devilishly tricky little blighter to get, that one! Cheers Dave.

Thanks Bob, I did eventually get 2 Hours on the Triangulum Galaxy after that. I will add more to it but here it is so far. Apart from a stretch and a crop this is straight out of SharpCap. (re-stacked

Hi Scott and welcome, That's a nice shot of Andromeda there. What level of light pollution did you have when that was taken? Did you use any filtering? Number/length of subs please. Thanks Dave

Skywatcher 200PDS is 1000mm with zero reduction coma corrector so still 1000mm You should be able to see most of my ph2 settings on the pictures if it helps you. Oh and I left the ZWO duo band filter
