Description

I have been experimenting with my small portable lightweight AT72EDII setup to be used when I image away from home or only have a few hours of clear skies and don't want to spend the time and effort to set up my larger Stellarvue SV102 rig. I had been using the lightweight setup with my unmodified Canon SL1 with OK results, but I thought it might be interesting to replace it with my un-cooled ASI224MC. I have had the ASI224MC for several years and used it for planetary and guiding, but thought I would see how it would do on DSOs. I was somewhat pleasantly surprised.
