Hopefully the weather gods are nice to me and I can do some test runs over the next couple of weeks while the moon is up to try to get familiar with it. I ran the autofocus routine a number of times and found it to be landing within a handful of steps of the same place each time, with a small amount of drift that I put down to the tube cooling off. When I checked it with a Baht mask you would need to be pretty fussy to worry about it.
Mosaic framing is another thing, I seem to be gravitating toward doing things that will require mosaics. I saw an image on Facebook this morning taken with a DSLR and couldn't help myself but to check in Sky Safari and ended up thinking "Four panels would cover that nicely with the ED72"
