Excellent Image

With my current configuration I cannot fit all of them in a single field of view. Here is a link to M82 I took recently.

Nicely done. Your guiding is excellent at an even smaller image scale.

Me neither, Ballard. Sometimes I feel like I'm imaging through a soda straw.

So I'm always interested in the equipment and camera used to see what gives a certain FOV to the image.
Except when I used my DSLR with my telescope. It seems to give a hugely wide FOV.
Last time I did that (years ago now) I could barely make out the Ring Nebula in the field of stars.

That was back in my "Rainbow Sprinkles" days with my junk camera... good riddance!
So I tried my D3300 to see if I could get a picture, instead of a picturd.
