AR13315 Ha 152mm f24 27th May

Post by marktownley »

Hi Everyone,

I was out early this morning making the most of the weather. I tried the 8" HaT with the 0.3a Solar Spectrum but the seeing wasn't there for the aperture, so I dropped down a notch to the 6" frac - much better! This was taken at f24 with the FLIR IMX174 chipped camera.

More data to process so hopefully will be some more...

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Mark

Mark,
Nice pic. I forgot you had a 6" frac. What is the make/brand?
