Ah Hickson 50... the home of the deepest I've gone visually. The 5th member of Hickson 50 is a visual 18.6 (mag listed often is 19.3 which is blue I believe)... took me 25 minutes at 500x to confirm 3 visual 'hits' on it ... I always had a stringent requirement for what I called a confirmed hit. That was using my 30" in Arizona.?
I'm still researching Jack. I see Touptek has a new camera, the?
IMX585 Colorful Camera ATR3CMOS08300KPA
which has an HDR mode that provides extremely low read noise and near 14 stops at a gain of 177. The only down side is the field is relatively small.?
