Took 29 2 minute images of M13 the other night with my C11/G11 at F/10. Processed in Images Plus and used DSLR Focus to focus. Autoguided with St-237A on a TV-85 riding piggyback on the C11. 10 darks where used.

Excellent shot, Ralph!

Question: Did you use a regular canon t-ring to connect the camera to the scope? And how are you opening the shutter on your exposures? I have a digital Rebel that I plan to use for astro shots but I'm a little aprehensive about a few things before I begin. Any help/advice is appreciated!

Good luck with the 10D!

Jeff
