I am very happy with the QHY268C thus far. I was able to capture a respectable image (other than the spacing issues) my first night out.

Expect many more images with this camera in the future (follow me on Instagram for the latest).

It is SO nice to use a cooled astronomy camera with familiar sensor size (APS-C), that frames up some of my favorite DSO's just right with my 100mm refractor.

I'll continue testing the QHY268C over the coming months, using a variety of different filters.

Thanks for watching, and clear skies!
