A large, bright and beautiful galaxy located in the southern sky.

I moved my gear to the balcony on the 2nd floor where I could see the southern sky to shoot the event on the 21st. In addition, I aimed at Target, which I can't usually shoot.

With a stronger signal than any of the top three bright galaxies, the Andoromeda galaxy, the Triangulum galaxy, and the String Of Pearl, the entire view can be seen on the monitor even in a 60-second test shot. With a 180-second exposure, you can clearly see the patterns and color transitions of the dark nebula.

The focal length is 2000mm + MFT size CMOS, and the angle of view is just barely large. It's huge (M31 is an order of magnitude larger in terms of size).

南天に位置する大きく明るく美しい銀河。

21日のイベントの撮影のため南天が見える2階のベランダにギアを移動した。

そのついでに普段は撮影できないTargetを狙ってみた。

明るい銀河Top3のAndoromeda銀河,三角座の銀河,String Of Pearlのどれよりも強いシグナルで60秒のテスト撮影でもその全景がモニタに浮かび上がってくるほどである。180秒露光だと、暗黒星雲の模様や色の遷移もはっきりわかる。

焦点距離2000mm＋MFTサイズのCMOSで、画角ギリギリの大きさである。でかい（大きさに関してはもちろんM31が桁違いに大きい）。
