Have you seen the Lifepixel guides Carlton?

I tested the camera last night and it looks good. I screwed the spring loaded chip all the way down at reassembly and it looks square. There are a couple of faint marks in the images so I'll get proper cleaning swabs to clean the chip.

The image is a 2 min sub under 85% moonlight with an IDAS D2 filter.

Coincidently my father in law asked what I'd like for my birthday, so there's a Baader 7nm H alpha filter in the mail - looking forward to trying that with the moon. (heaps cheaper from Germany than the US by the way).
LOL, I'm in the knows less & still dangerous category...

Yes, I've read through the Lifepixel guide.... it scared me silly....

Cheers, be interested to see your results

Maybe I'll get brave enough one day...

Carlton
