The scope is the C14 with the Hyperstar and a Canon XSI camera. (Modified) I don't think the modified camera is needed for comets, but it was convenient. Dew started to move in again at 5:15AM as the pictures start to dim. Maybe I'll wrap a heating pad around the scope next time! The hair dryer works, but it only works for a short time. And, it's noisy in the quiet morning. We don't have enough dew to warrant a dew heater.
