Description

First light with my ASI1600MM and the little William Optics Zenithstar 61.

Only managed 25 5 minute exposures in HA before the clouds rolled in. Added 20 darks as well.

I like both the camera and the scope. I just wish the skies would open up one of these days.

One thing though. The ZWO filters don't seem to handle bright stars that well.
