Description

Actually, I only drove up to test my lenses with the MiniTrack - in terms of aperture, exposure time, counterweight etc. However, sometimes I'm really amazed at what is possible even under bad conditions. The worst light pollution, haze and bright moonlight - almost no stars were actually visible to the naked eye. And yet on this short exposure "without a filter" you can see the Heart Nebula, Pacman, The Ghost in Cassiopeia and even a little bit of the Dolphin Nebula alongside some of my favorite star clusters.

Lens @ f4, no darks, flats and bias.
