Thanks, Ray!

The longer fl Ceravolo option has given the pillars better edge and shadow detail and with the big sensor you get all the important bits in too.

Thanks, John. I'll have to look more closely at some of your NB work! The scope and camera are a great combo for targets like this.

I'm sure you'll have some good stuff to share, Rob!

Hmmm... perhaps we need to call it a "convolution"

Thanks, Jase!
