Thats nice Carole! taken over 5 years ha ha, I like it

Glad you got something nice after all your perseverance

Fay

[Carole]

Thanks Fay.  I didn't think I would be able to do it as the old DSLR image I finished up with was cropped and did not match the FOV of the CCD cameras, then I suddenly stumbled on the uncropped version.  Just shows you shouldn't chuck originals away.

Very nice Carole.

You must have almost as many cameras as Fay does tents

Is that a new 460 ?

Robert

[Carole]

Thanks Robert,  Lol

I bought the Atik460 almost a year ago, when I sold my Atik383, I have been using it over the last year but not quite as much as the 314, but it has featured in the dual rig before. 

3 cameras:
Atik314
Atik460
Modified Canon 450D (going to be using this once I get my Ioptron skytracker up and running).

Nice maybe a tad over smoothed for my liking but very good... John

[Carole]

Thanks John, to be honest I am not completely happy with it myself and want to do better once I can get some better data.
