GStar-Ex3 Colour Camera Images
(using the Vixen R130sf)

Back

Picture
.All images are taken unguided with the Vixen R130sf 5 inch f/5 Newtonian. Some post-processing is involved and the deep sky object images are brighter than their live on-screen display. Of course they are not as good as long exposure images taken with a dedicated cooled CCD camera such as the Atik 383L+ Mono and a larger telescope, but that is to be expected.  Nevertheless they do give a reasonable approximation of what a viewer can see with this camera.
