Mark jenkins and Trent Kjell from Big Cigar observatory sent me this image taken last night with a consumer digital camera.
Mark used his Canon 50D camera on the back of his AP130 scope mounted on a Mach1 mount. 2 minute unguided exposures, 30 exposures stacked. Full frame image reduced to 1/4 size. No field flattener used, so corner stars are somewhat elongated.
