ETX-70 'sees' PNe + OC in Hydra

My first imaging venture into the lowly [from UK!] and sprawling Hydra below Leo/Virgo with my first love eg spectroscopy with lo-res spectrum of planetary neb NGC 3242 using a Rainbow Optics grating immediately before the CCD via the ETX-70 - I've marked the emission lines from this object

Here's the same planetary neb field but without grating or integral focal reducer for native 70mm f/5 OG
