I pulled out my old Orion Skywatcher 120mm X 1000mm refractor to play around with.
I played with the moon for a bit using the Celestron 236M Monochrome CMOS cam and processed as follows.
3 minutes of video at 55 FPS
I used AutoStakkert!2 and stacked 2500 frames
Tweaked in Registax and finished off in Photoshop CC 2018 and could not get rid of the chromatic fringe effect.

Added a shot of the Orion Nebula.
Oh my what nice chromatic dribbles we have here.
This is why I don't use it very much.
Viewing directly is pin sharp however.
Oh yeah... Canon 7D Mark II f:/10 fixed, ISO 250, 75 second exposure

Yup, I finally have an operational Horizon camera. The 1st one I received was somehow screwed up and would never capture an image. I spend three webs beta testing the camera for ATIK before they decided the camera was garbage and sent a replacement. This one appears to be working just fine!? ATIK is still playing with the Infinity software to support the mono/color Horizons and their series 400 cameras as well as the mono/color Infinity cameras BUT they are getting to a fairly stable product.

From what I'm seeing so far I'm really going to like this camera!

As for the snow, still ass deep to a dwarf Indian!

Finally got out under the cloud with a foggy Moon being the only thing I could see (and shoot)... Not a star in sight!

Setup: ATIK Color Horizon camera, William Optics Megrez 90 scope, WO 0.8x flattener/reducer, STC Duo-Narrowband filter (6nm @ Oiii & 6nm @ Ha), #13 neutral density filter. Required the neutral density filter to get the exposure above the minimum 0.001 sec. of the camera. Testing the STC Duo-Narrowband for image color.

Images: 195x0.05 sec. @ Gain: 1 & Offset: 1

Processing: best 5 of 195 subs aligned and stacked in RegiStax 6.2, tweaked in Lightroom (no color correction, no noise reduction, minimal sharpening).

Up to this point I have been shooting pix of mountains and buildings. Nice to see it actually work on a stellar object even if it is JUST the Moon!

Enjoy!

I was impatient and only did a double polar alignment and not sure I did that correctly.
I ran the program to completion and disconnected, then redid the alignment with a different star to fine tune.
The Flame I shot at ISO 200 for 105 seconds. I was using my 6" Newtonian on my CGEM mount since I have not been able to use it very much since I bought it in August.
The remaining shots were done at ISO 100 also for 105 seconds.
Better I think and my coma was helped a bit with a laser alignment that I may have done correctly. Looking through the alignment cover before aligning, I tried to adjust my vanes to see all of the tabs you are supposed to see when looking in. I was close but really no cigar so that might be why I have so much coma still.
Anyway it is what it is for now.
Here you go Sonny, Probably not worth the wait but hey.. I was able to image for a bit.

Dive! Dive!

There was a time, with my Orion G3 camera (POS!), I would "stack with time".
I'd get my mount aligned and on an object, then use super long exposures to gather Photons to get a single shot image.
Never as good as stacking, but I got by.
The G3 can't even be a decent guide camera. It drops out, and requires the USB be unplugged/reinserted to bring it back.
And this is my 3rd one! Very expensive mistake.

I bought an Atik Infinity from a very good Friend, and got amazing images from the very first night.
Atik has a stacking software that makes dummies like me look good. https://youtu.be/8PDuNTWBBGQ
