Moon picture with a security cam.

Some shots of the moon near crater Proctor.
Taken with a security cam: 2x barlow, 10" dob, single shot.
Some thin cloud in front of the moon so not as sharp as can be.

Still, a shot to be very happy with mill. Was that though the Dob or the refractor?

It's amazing the amount of cameras that will actually give a good image

Paul that was through the 10" dob at prime focus.
Maybe a 4 or 6x barlow on a good night will be amazing.

It is a great image Mill!

I use a little security camera in my Finderscope so I can do my 3 point Star alignment from inside my control room

I haven't looked thru a finderscope in about 12 months!!!!!!

My dob doesn't have one. It's on the ED80 with the security camera in it
