First two nights light with Canon Ra on the William Optics redcat. It was as much of a test of the Redcat as the Canon Ra. Focal plane is not exactly flat. I believe if I can dial the focal plane focus in the Redcat will be fine for full frame imaging. Some coma in corners and along short edges. Some reflection off of rear petval element as well. The Canon Ra performed as expected. I have a full review on my YouTube video channel.

Processing note: I layered in a previously captured H-alpha of the Horsehead taken with my ASI 294 MC Pro on the Redcat. I think I added about 30% in from that image as a "lighten" layer. Reduced some noise and provided more signal.

Image at ISO 1600

I will likely continue to add data and more layering of higher resolution onto this image over time.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
