Thanks Rob,

I've had it for a little while and only gotten around to processing some of the images I have taken with it.

Nice one
Thanks Peter.

The very corner stars are a little off in some corners - nothing to worry about but in the pursuit of perfection I have gotten a tilt/tip adapter from Teleskop Services (M48 version) that should enable me to fine tune it.
I am using it with my Microline 16 and I packed it out on one corner so all 4 corners are pefect with that so I know its merely a minor tilt adjustment needed.
Its a beautifully made little unit and the focus ring is nice to work with and it holds focus well. All manual of course.

A micro FSQ. I am surprised there aren't more scopes out there using the Petsval design.

Greg.
