Brightest in a small group including UGCA 167 24' E. The following observation was made on 13 Apr 2018 with my 24".

At 200x and 375x; moderately bright and large, oval 4:3 SW-NE, well defined small bright core increasing to a stellar nucleus. Several 9-10th magnitude stars are in the field including a mag 9.3 star 7' E.

William Herschel discovered NGC 2907 = H II-506 = h607 on 31 Dec 1785 (sweep 503) and logged "pB, S, lE, mb towards the sf side." On 16 Dec 1827 (sweep 111) John Herschel recorded "F; bM; lE s f; 30" [diameter]."

300/350mm - 13.1" (4/10/86): fairly faint, fairly small, elongated 2:1 ~E-W, 1.4'x0.7, bright core, stellar nucleus. A small group of four mag 11-13 stars lies roughly 4' SW.

600/800mm - 25" (3/31/17 - OzSky): at 244x; bright, large, slightly elongated 3:2 WNW-ESE, 2.4'x1.6', strong concentration with a bright, elongated core and an intense nucleus. A number of stars are nearby including a half-dozen stars to the southwest. The galaxy is elongated in the direction of two mag 14 stars 2.5' SE. UGCA 167, located 24' E, appeared moderately bright and large, slightly elongated SW-NE. Contains a very small bright nucleus and a diffuse outer halo.
