Heya,

Used the iOptron 3302B to rotate with the stars, relative to Earth.

Exposure times range from 180 seconds to 300 seconds. Single exposure images, no stacking. EXIF intact for those that are curious.

thx for sharing, as I just got my iOptron 3302B Friday.

btw, yours is white, so technically a iOptron 3302W (W for white), correct?

Heya,

Yeap, W for white. I like the white, it helps me see the thing in the dark after my eyes adjust when I'm just sitting there puffing a pipe and the exposures are going.

Very best,
