Are there any reviews for this new Canon 40D?

There are some interesting smaller nebulas in this image that I'll be
imaging with a longer focal length. Like the S shaped nebula
near the top and the Jellyfish style nebula in the lower left.

47 Tucanna reshot

Posted By Greg Bradley

My last attempt at this last week taught me a few things.

I reshot it last night and reduced the subexposures times in the luminance from 5 minutes
before to 2.5 minutes in this one.

Sculptor galaxy

Posted By Greg Bradley

There are a few bright Southern Galaxies. M83 is one, NGC1365 is another and the Sculptor NGC 253 is one of the brightest.

This is now over 3 hours and I'll be adding more when I have a chance.
