Attached is a M42 image with some minor processing. Really my first try. Should say my first with the new scope. Image is 2 minutes, SM-2000, Unguided, TOA-130. Image is reduced. Initial results are much better than with the C9.25.
The core of M42 is saturated/over exposed. Is this normal when taking the initial image?
And is this something that gets cleaned up with more image processing?
My focus and tracking may be off, I'm more concerned about the initial image and saturation/over exposure.
Thanks for any comments and help.
