SCOPE: 5.2" William Optics FLT132 f/7
CAMERA: Sbig SFT-8300M
EXPOSURE: 16x300sHa, 16x300sR, 16x300sG, 16x300sB, 5 hours 20 minutes total exposure.NOTES: This turned out okay, but I'm still not getting enough frames per color filter because of the longer exposures. I may in furture try and reduce the exposures to get more frames which may help the signal to noise ratio.
