Description

DSO imaging spree!

Trying my hand with the QHY23.

This time, Crux constellation, very prominent for us here in the south. Rich region around, lots to see. Bin 1, 40 x 45 sec subs, no darks, no flats. In spite of the 24 deg temperature, the sensor is cooled to 0 deg easily. Low noise, at least compared to my experience with the Canon 60Da pixel storm...
