Hi Guys,

Maybe I am missing something, however when I used to use my Canon 500mm lens for any astro work, I would auto focus with the center focusing point only on the camera, then turn the lens to manual and image away.

During the night if the temp fell dramatically I would do an other auto focus and go again,

So why the need for a Bahtinov Mask on long lenses.
