M8 with ED120

Hi All

I had to post this!

It is early days at the moment with the ED120 but here is a sample of what is to come. This image was taken with a Canon 350D (Modified) on Tuesday the 20th, it is a total of 10 x 1min shots unguided (EQ6 with Synscan), processed with RegiStar and Photoshop. No dark frame or light frames were used.

Optical speaking the telescope is spot on, factory collimation is spot on and star test produced a nice consistent diffraction pattern on both sides of focus.
