Keyhole Nebula (Carina Nebula) with Equinox 80mm ED

Post by perseid »

As promised, this is the image taken with the new Equinox 80mmED from Sky-Watchers.

It is a stack of 41 90sec unguided images using registax. The camera is Canon 300D (modified) and was taken on the 26th February 2007 from Balik Pulau, Penang.

No dark frame or flat field is used.

*The image has been highly degraded due to compression before posting. I might crop some of the interesting sections and post the images later.
