The field is very well corrected. What newtonian is that and what coma corrector are you using?

We'd be thrilled with that.

Lots of tiny clusters scattered about the image. So much to see, and well captured.

Nice. I have a RCC1 but never used it. How does it compare to the baader MPCC in your experience? It's a lot bigger too.

In my opinion the MPCC works really well at F5... but F4 is better corrected by RCC1 or Paracorr.... each of the have different spacing requirements and needs.......... i love Paracorr and RCC1
