I bought the ETX LS6 when it first came out to use for DSO imaging.  I was a real newby at the time and didn't know about field rotation, Alt/Az versus EQ mounts, etc.  I just knew it could find objects in the night sky!  Finally figured out what I really needed to do but have always loved this scope and the optics that it came with.  So with some clearing skies, and albeit, hazy conditions I set it up with the Baader Film and took a 4 panel mosaic with the Saturn-M SQR and a close up of AR's 3685 and 86 with the ASI174MM.  Not too bad considering the conditions.
