M82 and the Moon with an 11" SCT
I used the Samsung SDC-435 camera with a light pollution filter and the 11" SCT with a 6.3 focal reducer. I captured 244 frames to DVD, extracted them with VOB File Extractor and stacked them in Registax using a dark-frame corrected with Dark Frame Scaler.
I then used the DMK21AS camera fitted with an IR/UV cut filter at the prime focus of the SCT to image the Moon:

The seeing was poor and this image is a stack of 250 frames out of a total of 8000 frames.
