This is another attempt of M45 with my FS78 at F/6.4 (.8 reducer)thru a ST10xme. This time I shortened the subs to 5 mins and used Flats to help with the gradient and vignetting, awful BRIGHT for a NABG camera! It consists of 30 min Lum,
10 min ea. R,G, 15 min.B. Thanks for any advise, Tom

That looks good Tom!
Flats work wonders don't they!I just started using them myself.
This does seem like a pretty bright target for a NABG camera,How bad are your blooms after a 5 minute exposure?
