Nice shot. Might start a new trend.

[asimov]

Ving. I dunno what made me do it? Just my experimental nature I guess. :D

Nice one John, i've done afocal bino shots myself, before I got my telescope :)

[asimov]

Yeah. I guess I look at binos as 2 refractors strapped together. With a prism in the train though.

That shot actually shows the benefits of a smaller aperture on a bright object. My afocal shots through the dob are often burnt out.

Hi Rob. I have some pretty good shots taken through a 60mm terrestrial refractor. They came out a lot better than using the big reflector.

I have been thingking of geting one of these Universal Adapters.. Maybe my 10x50's could be dusted off for some afocal imaging of the moon.
