I have often thought that a mosaic of high resolution shots would be good.

What kind of permanent set up do you think?

I have just tried the cat at 1000 f5 and it is quicker and frames better than 600 f6 . But the lobster is cut off, so more scopes is better.

It is also my experience that for a similar FL aperture plays a big role. FSQ is ~530mm and the hyperstar on the C11 is the same FL. The FOV is very similar, yet for all the optical sharpness of the FSQ the C11 on axis still levels it nicely. Years back Jase started doing high resolution mosaics to mimic widefield coverage. If I had a permanent setup that's what I'd do.
