Description

This image was created in the same session with the same optics as the previously uploaded image: 
https://www.astrobin.com/ux1x87

I wanted to compare whether the ASI183MC, with its smaller pixels, produces a visibly better resolution than the ASI1600MM.
But the result is that the ASI1600 (Mono) produced  the same resolution combined with less noise.
Despite the about 1 hour shorter exposure time with luminace filter.
The seeing was average to good during the recording nights.
But obviously not good enough for the ASI183 to show off its higher resolution.
