I use liveview pretty much the whole time the camera is on the 'scope. At either zoom level, stars aren't pin sharp, rather soft balls that are close to focused but not quite there. That then translates to recorded imagery. The issue persists regardless of seeing conditions. But due to weather (and lack of dew shield), I haven't had a chance to fully stretch the OTA with the reducer/corrector fitted.
