Weather is far from being perfect, so I am not really able to shot any pretty pictures with new camera. Plus I had a little miscollimated refractor (fixed by now) and the distance to the flattener is too short (will be fixed soon). Nevertheless I managed to take a few longer exposures, so here you will find my first pictures from QHY163M camera.

So far, so good. QHY163M first pictures proves, that camera seems to be pretty much like many-in-one – good for long exposure “classic” DS picturing, good for short few seconds many frames stack for unguided LRGB imaging, and of course good for planetary imaging as well.

Waiting for darker nights. Without Moon.
Clear skies!
