H Folks--
Here is my first test image with my new ASI 120mm. This was captured today in 16 bit mode with Firecapture 2.3 Beta and a double stacked Lunt 100 Ha telescope. I tried some higher res shots with a Powermate 2.5x but had an issue with newtons rings that I still need to work around. I image with several cameras, and purchased this one t use while another was being repaired---all in all a great value! Noise seems pretty low.

that's really great first light!
well done!
Thanks Sam
Here is the test image (mono and color) with a 2.5 powermate and the Lunt 100. Definitely some newtons rings so I need to play around a bit more to see what I can do about them (during capture--before processing). These were captured with firecapture in 8 bit mode
I stretched the ZWO image per Gordon's post in the other thread (something I never had to do much of with the DMK 41) and the results did show more detail--(the Newtons rings are still bad)
see below---stretched and sharpened only---
