Lagoon Nebula-- Carlos Taylor-- MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THIS LARGE.

Lagoon Nebula-- Carlos Taylor-- MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THIS LARGE.
I was given this stacked shot to edit so I had a good look at the scope and Camera before I bought it. 50 shots 4 min tracked and guided. Shot with a whole set of spectrum filters,

this is a ZWO camera cooled to -10 staggeringly noise free. Now it learn how to use and edit "Fits" files nothing any of us has ever seen or used so a whole new learning curve. Hope like me you agree a good choice.

Starless lagoon Nebula- Do look large.


my shot shows a 600mm full frame View but this shows a 900mm view from the 600mm scope and a 1.5 crop factor camera.

Steve, certainly a stunning result.
If it was mine I would have it printed (36x24 at least) and on the wall by now.
So much detail needs time to explore. Keep them coming.
