There are times when I believe you can try too hard and be over complicated
Hi Jeremy
The reason I was so happy with the image was it was the first with this scope taken within a minute or two of taking the scope out of the box and finding focus instantly without a mask.
And I suppose not feeling well and expecting problems added to my joy. I guess I was negative because it took me a while to get the 80mm sorted.


I do like your image and thank you for posting.

Also your levels were way way out

Plus there is little actual detail in the image, may I suggest a DSLR on the scope and download and make this great piece of kit

Thanks but I plan to continue my narrow band journey with this scope ... M42 Lagoon ..those sorts of objects. I have a long way to go and thanks for the link.
