The Orion nebula with an SV305 camera and AstroDMx Capture for Linux

Stack combination of 30 x 25s, 30 x 20s, 30 x 15s, 30 x 10s, 30 x 5s and 30 x 2s exposures plus matching dark-frames, of The Orion nebula with an SV305 camera with an SVBONY UV/IR cut filter, and a 130mm, f/5 Newtonian, captured with AstroDMx Capture for Linux. Images stacked and combined in Deep Sky Stacker with Entropy weighted average  as well as a simple average of the light frames, and processed in the Gimp, FastStone and Neat image.


This demonstrates that if sufficient data are captured and combined correctly, the SV305 camera is capable of producing very pleasing results
