AA115EDT First Light (kind of)
I received a flattener for the 115 the other day which gave me the spacing needed to reach focus and get a image! Although this is the first image taken through the 115 i dont consider it its true first light, a DSO is needed for that.
I am happy with the image, after imaging the Moon with a 200mm lens all this time, having the frac with a focal length of 805 makes a big difference. I shot 88 single images and stacked the best 50% in Autostakkert!2 then used wavelets in Regitax 5. I tried not to go overboard on them which is easly done.
Next time i think i will take a video to stack, will be interesting to see what produces the best results.
Exposure:
88* 1/500th sec, ISO400, 805mm
Camera: Canon 1100D
Scope: Altair Astro 115EDT
Mount: NEQ6
