Hello,

Few days (or nights) ago I pointed my 13" f/4.6 towards the famous Seyfert's Sextet for the first time. The conditions were average, LM in Serpens Caput I estimated at 6.0-6.1 mag, seeing and transparency could have been better as well...
I used Delos 10, Pentax XW7 and TeleVue 2x barlow (1.25"). I spent nearly half an hour, trying different magnifications and I could confirm only 2 brightest members of the group - NGC6027 and NGC6027E. The best view I had at 214x (XW7) and 300x (Delos 10 barlowed).

Guys, I wonder what experience you have with this object? What aperture is needed to see all six members?

Cheers,

Pawel
