This was the first "long-exposure" I took with a digital camera, the Fuji S1. Stacking five 30 second exposures gave me a three minute stacked image guided on a Losmandy GM-11 with an ST-4 autoguider. The image below was taken the same night, but with film. Note the subtle difference in tonal values pluse the detail differences. Same night, same mount and autoguider.
