CGCG 163-007, situated 9' SE, appeared very faint, fairly small, slightly elongated, 25"x20", very low surface brightness. Located 4' SW of mag 8.2 HD 125320.

Stephane Javelle discovered IC 4395 = J. 3-1297 on 14 Jun 1895. He reported it as "faint, round, 20"-25" diameter, stellar center".

600/800mm - 24" (7/1/19): at 375x; fairly faint, fairly small, slightly elongated N-S, 30"x25", occasional faint stellar nucleus. A mag 11.7 star is 2.0' S. Located 11' WNW of mag 8.2 HD 125320. A faint edge-on companion at the west edge (apparently responsible for tidal distortions in IC 4395) was not seen.
