See the Slooh Scope tab above or click here for information on Slooh locations, scopes, presets, and weather/sky condition descriptions.
North is up and east is to the left in the images below.
I would guess that the Hickson Groups contain more (and dimmer) galaxies than are shown in the various pictures as part of the AL's Observing Manual. No attempt was made to go beyond what was presented there.
It would be very difficult to do this section with out being able to consult a good reference like the AL book for this program. Look here for more information on the Hickson Groups.

Notes/Comments:
No picture in the program's book so I looked here to find more info. I believe it is located in the up side down triangle of stars in the zoomed imaged. If so possibly only one galaxy shows up in the image. According to the link it would be PGC 34447, catalog mag +18.7, measured mag +16.1.
Note: the book says Hickson 50 was omitted on page 17, but it is included in the table on page 20.

Notes/Comments:

Three of the book's members are easy to see although one (M+4-27-44) seems more stellar. It is the bottom of what could be mistaken as a double star.
The fourth member P35381 at magnitude 16.3 above a brightish star on the left is just a few faint pixels.

There's an interesting big blob of a star in the upper right as part of a triangle in the book's image that isn't in mine.

Another inverted image so north is down and east is to the right.
Two members are easily seen. For the two galaxies labeled as "c" in the book, one is above the star on the right and the other is between the star and the noticeable galaxy towards the center.
Only four galaxies are labeled in the book's picture but I'd guess that the 5th (P36851) is the difficult to see faint blob close to the lower left corner.

Two of the group members are easy to spot. The other two are on the hypotenuse of the triangle in the bottom left of the image.

4 of 6 brighter than Mag 16.
Brightest member: M+3-38-17:Arp 328
Notes/Comments:
Five of the book's list are in the image. There should be two galaxies between the close pair and the one below it. I only see one very faint one (P52849) and not U9532 at magnitude 17.8.
A M-3-38-17 mag 13.9

Brightest member: N 5910
Notes/Comments:
The zoomed field doesn't exactly match the book's image but it does show 4/5 of the listed ones. P54694 at magnitude 17.8 should be above and to the left of the grouping of three but is too dim to be seen. P54697 is below and just past center on the left.

4 of 7 brighter than Mag 16.
Brightest member: N 5944
Notes/Comments:
I can see 6/7 listed galaxies in the zoomed image. P56307 at magnitude 16.4 should be an edge on galaxy above and to the right of the close pair above center. An extreme zoom to the maximum limit shows the tiny star beside it but I can't see the galaxy. P55325 at magnitude 16.7 is over on the left edge but can be seen....oh well.

Notes/Comments:
The brighter two galaxies (U10049 and P56122) are easily seen. Above them P56121 & P56125 are merging to form a large blob.

Brightest member: U 10057
Notes/Comments:
Once again two easy, two hard. U10057 (higher) and M+11-19-16 (lower) are easy to pick up in the zoomed field.
P56095 is listed as magnitude 17.6 and can be seen between the two stars at the left. P56086 is listed at magnitude 16.2 and much harder to see to the left of the star at the top of the image.
