Description

This is the first attempt with an old JUPITER 37-A (135mm f3.5 telel).

The stop is closed to f5 to avoid geometrical distorsions and the camera, ASI 1600 mono, is cropped to obtain a square field of 5x5 degrees (300'x300').
Gain on 100 (scale from 0 to 600) and binning 2x (an error of course causing pixel stars).
From my sky (Borttle 9+ and many cloudy veils) the integration of 3 hours is unuseful (after 50 minutes the situation dosen't chance).
By the Way... it's so... just to have memories of the attempt.
