Hi guys,
Sorry i went MIA for a couple of days there.
Thanks for all the great replies.
I think you are all correct in the sense of not worrying too much about the perfection and where i got was good enough.
I think on a high res image the flaws become more present i can see that there is split diffraction spikes and the darkness around them which i can't control as i imagine that's an exact side effect of the light dispersing around that point.
I think like most of us i am being a little OCD in trying to get anything better out of the image which can be a good and a bad thing.
That tool looks excellent too Ryan ill have to check it out.
xelasnave - i am actually looking at printing some baffles for the tube in the near future just waiting on some matte PLA so i can reprint my current stuff and have a go at the baffles. I agree from all i have seen baffling and flocking increases contrast considerably. Those images are really good for reference too Ryan.
Although i still love imaging with the 130P i have fixed all my diffraction spike issues over the last couple of days and purchased myself a neat little refractor
Shall hopefully have some images of that in the near future.
Cheers
