Conditions in the target region: NELM 5m4+
I only observed the two brightest members.
NGC2783A: Already visible at 80x with averted vision. Appeared roundish, quite well condensed, rather small.
NGC2783B: Appeared more as an almost stellar brightening, in few moments also elongated. Permanently seen with averted vision but pretty faint.
