ST-7XME frosting

This was my first image with ST-7XME camera after summer break and quite surprise. CCD chip temperature was set to -15C degrees and I was starting my focusing routines. It took me a while to figure out that the image is showing heavy frosting of the CCD chamber. Obviously it’s time to bake the desiccant plug in the oven for couple of hours.
