I really like the fact the "Stallion" of Ara is nicely resolved. Too often lost in the haze in lesser renditions.

Hi & thanks Peter, I was reasonably happy with this as a test pic, but can’t wait to see what this thing can do when it’s fully dialed in! I was very aware that Ara experts like yourself would zero in on the Stallion - glad it passed the test! (Phew!) lol

Here it is : 71.5mm:

It looks like a small amount of tilt as well as the stars are not distorted to the same degree in each corner.

Thanks heaps Greg, yes I’m as exited as a kid in a candy store that I can play with such nice toys!
I appreciate the links there- will see what I can do.
The camera is very heavy though, might need some expert fine tuning to negate that tilt issue yet!
