Inspired by many others we tried to capture M31 with our own equipment, an old Fuji camera with a 80mm lens.

The only additional tool we used for this shot was a cheap used star tracker so we could expand each shot to 20s. We captured a total of 411 shots which leads to a total exposure time of about 2h17m.

For our first try we are very pleased with the result!

I think with your equipment you could achieve an even better image, I really can only encourage everyone to try this. It really is an awesome experience
