BTW, do you actually shoot images with your ST-2000? <vbg> Or do you just guide with it? Again, great job! ... www.flemingastrophotography.com Direct from...
If I could get a flat field when used with my scopes I would use the camera more for imaging, until then it makes an excellent autoguide camera. So far, using...
That really surprises me. I can hardly imagine any modern APO of that size having any sort of issue with an ST-2000 chip. Care to send me a FIT or two? I can...
Hi, It is designed for 55mm of back focus. The ST2K & CFW8a have almost 50mm of back focus alone. The closest I can get to the 55mm optiumum is 50mm, I have to...

I have shot a section of the Pelican Nebula over the past few nights and I am experimenting with some processing This is 9 hours (3 hours each channel...
Nice shot, Mike. Hard to tell with the colors...so much of this narrowband stuff is subjective. My personal taste leans towards adding back some green,...
Hi, I finally got some time to image again. This is an attempt at processing IC 5067 in h-alpha using an FSQ 106 and st10xme. The image is 12x1200 sec and was...
You've got some good data there, Stephane. Personal taste, but you might want to reduce the amount of smoothing and sharpening. Gives a more gentle/natural ...
Hi Neil, thanks for the critic, I was a "little" generous on the smoothing and sharpening :), I agree with you. I may re-process the image if I can find the...
Hello all, This object is not so easy to do with narrowband filters, OIII is so particulary difficult to process and challenge is to keep a good S/N on the ...
Hello Stephane, YOu have captured a fiery look to this object! I can see why you came up with an artistic version, your processing hints at a raging tempest in...
Hi Mike, Other than it's upside down ;) I like it! As Neil stated, color mixing in this medium can get pretty subjective, and I do tend to prefer the presence...
This one barely qualifies as a narrowband. It was taken from my Denver backyard a couple of nights ago with the Stellarvue 90T and SBIG ST-2000XM. 75 minute...
Hi Phil, That is a very nice image of M31. Excellent sharp detail and I really like the capture of the Ha knots. That is one for the desktop background. Buddy...
This nebula is quite large so I did a 2 image mosaic using the method I came up with in CCD Stack. I combined each of the channels using data reject and sum...
Great work as usual, Dean. Can you elaborate on "I used CCD Stack and expanded the canvas to register the mosaic images to be taken into Photoshop"? Thanks ...
