Deep imaging test image of the Antennae colliding galaxies (NGC 4038/4039) taken with the QSI 683wsg-8. This was the first attempt at some deep imaging to see what the camera could pick up under suburban Auckland skies. Total imaging time was L:350 R:50 G:50 B:60
This is a 100% crop of the central area of the frame. The coma was still not fully corrected. This was because I calculated that I needed a 6mm T spacer in order to bring the Baader MPCC to 55mm from the CCD chip. But it turned out to still need about 0.5mm more which I later added temporarily by cutting a thin plastic wafer and fitting it on the thread of the 6mm spacer.
There is still evidently a bit of guiding inaccuracy to deal with. I suspect upgrading my old standard Losmandy RA/DEC worms on the G11 will help with this.
