Discovery Astrophotography with ZWO ASTRO

First Light with ASI1600MM-Cool+EFWmini+ZWO New RGBL

Haven’t been imaging for nearly one year

I joined a star party a couple of days ago

and here is my first light with our new camera ASI1600MM-Cool

 

This is my new portable and lightweight setup for DSO imaging

Mount: ZEQ25

Scope: 70SA 2kg Only

Imaging and Guiding system: ASI1600MM-Cool+EFWmini+ZWO New LRGB, OAG + ASI290MM for guiding  1KG total

So this imaging setup is only 3kg

All data captured at Unity Gain and 3 mins exposure for single frame

M27 L*12 R*3 G*3 B*3

M27 is very high in the sky, I just combined the RGBL together and did a DDP, I don’t even need to adjust the color

ZWO New LRGB Filters are very suitable for ASI1600,  EFWmini works great all night as well.

M31 L*40 R*10 G*10 B*10

This is the most difficult object!Very hard to do the post processing, anyway this is what I can do
