Description

Used my QHY8pro OSC for this one. Never quite got to grips with this camera. Images did not seem that much better than with my modified Canon 600D, apart from the cooling taking away the background noise.

I'm sure it's me not just using it correctly. Anyway on bright objects it does a nice job with a good wide spectrum of visible colour.

I printed this one out and used it as a Christmas card . < # something_different >
