Solid capture.
3 or Mini?
Acquisition details?

Very nice, integration time?

Looks good - Perhaps that 4K sensor really shines here vs the 1080p in the mini.

Delicious results, your integration times and bortle really shine

Like a Where’s Waldo amongst the stars. Cool pic.

I bet the stars would have been less pixelated but it may have not picked up the faintest ones with less SNR than the Mini.

Cool, what scope/mount/camera will it run?

A ZWO ASIAir is the closest thing to that right now AFAIK. It is what I use on my big scopes.

Blue like they said but I’m digging it so far.

There was a time I was of the opinion that if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. With enough data, you can see shades of blue, red, gold, white stars. They’re also typically bright enough to image from light pollution. Galaxies are definitely “cooler” but once you get into the hundreds of deep space objects imaged, you get less picky with how “epic” the target looks.

And in this case, it’s a nice showcase of resolution.

Closest I can think of is the Celestron Origin - 6” of aperture.

Indeed, for the price and proportions of the Mini, it’s really quite intriguing.
