Very nice indeed Herbert... 11 hours well spent  8)

The 314L+ certainly can match the fancy big chipped competitors  ;)

Well done Herbert.

It is very nice to see, your image of this neglected messier galaxy.

Your processing is excellent.

I also like your equipment. Very impressive.

I am saving to replace my 16ic with a 314l+, so I was doubly impressed with your picture.

Herbert,

A very nice image!

You should take another look at M101.  Supernova SN2011fe is still very visible in this galaxy (see http://tinyurl.com/bwaM101Montage).

Herbert,

Really nice take of M101, a not so easy target..

What OS do you use with your EFW2?

What OS do you use with your EFW2?I'm not sure, what OS means - Observationsoftware?

Superb, one of the best 101's I've seen with any 'amateur' camera.. Colours and detail are outstanding. :)

Hi joelshort and Guy Walsh!

Thank you for your positiv reply.

Some nights going well, some night not.
The raws for m101 are very good and captured during a period of good seeing.
Therefor it was not so difficult to get a good resolution in the image - but I'm astonished again and again about the qualitiy of the Atik314L+  -  its really a superb camera.

Best regards.
Herbert, Austria
