Description

This was a test of a new imaging rig I built to auto focus camera lenses attached to my QHY23. The lens is a Zeiss 135f2 mostly run at f/4. The image scale is a rather large 5.64"/px. Sky conditions were poor and clouds marred >75% of the frame so I only ended up with about 1 hour of useful subs. Still as a test I consider it a success even if the image is not the most wonderful. Lots of goodies in this field
