Originally posted by ProfessorBuzz Nice work. It even picked up some of the Hydrogen-alpha rich areas (red). The first shot looks sharper - I suspect lens abberations in the second shot. Nicely done for a first attempt.
Thank you! And agreed, I loved how well the film captured the reds of some of the nebulas. You're correct as well on the lens aberrations in the second shot. Both lenses were shot wide open, but the 28/3.5 performed much better than the 43/1.9. At the expense of needing a longer exposure of course. You can really see some of the astigmatism of the 43mm in the Rho complex in the second shot
