Yep. Thinking I'll make a platform for the Dob, then go a 5x powermate with the Canon in 4K mode, which gets me;
FOV: 8.39' x 4.42'
Resolution: 0.12"/pixel
Area: 37.1 sq'
Focal length: 9000mm
Focal ratio: f/22.5

Hopefully that will be enough. Of course, it's only half what's possible with a C11 EdgeHD, but when I look at spending maybe $700 for a powermate and bits and bobs to make a platform for the dob, compared to $11,000 for a C11 EdgeHD and Losmandy G11, I think maybe common sense must prevail.

Cheers,
Markus
