Description

First light for my EdgeHD 8. HaRGB image taken from central London (Bortle 9).
The 0.7x reducer was used to speed things up a bit and guiding was excellent throughout the night, always being under 0.5".

Second night: Guiding was even better (sub 0.4") due to less wind. Good seeing.

Overall impressed with the performance of the EdgeHD 8 in these tough, light polluted conditions.
