Great work Phil. It never ceases to amaze me how flat the NP101's field really is. Considering you are magnify the field with a 2x powermate I would expect some field curvature, but alas, none is found - pin point stars all the way to the edge of the frame. Keep up the work.:thumbsup:

beautiful phil. well centred. can i ask why use the 2 x powermate? wouldn't that give you a higher f ratio?
