Messier 22 is considered to be one of the finest globular clusters in the sky. With a visual magnitude of 5.1, it can be seen with the naked eye on a clear night, and is the third-brightest in the sky (after Omega Centauri and 47 Tucanae). SKYWATCHER 200/800+Infinity+Infinity software
10x10" stack

Thanks. Combination of Infinity+Skywatcher 200/800 gives good result. But I think that Mallincam AG1.2c with IMX224 would give the same or better result because his small pixel size and good sensibility.
When using Infinity software, the trick is with the Histogram function giving a margin for avoid clipping any light in the picture with the black and white sliders. The retouching tools of these softwares are very elementary and it is better to use more complete tools later.
Gain is automatic in Infinity and only can choose exposition. For this kind of objects 10x10" would be enough in my opinion.

Don't worry Robert, maybe the mount is ticking well but seeing, high clouds and wind give bad results whit my mount too..... and to choose a moved initial picture of stacking too.
This day was a god day, weird thing, and with a 10x10" exposure even a altazimutal mount can do the job well.
