I already mentioned that at the earlier part of this thread. This is the first time i saw what a 'sweet spot' looks like after seeing your DSLR widefield image. :-) Anyway, the sweet spot can be fixed in place at the center of your FOV by using the barlowed laser collimator method. I have one and i can make the collimation adjustments in less than 30 seconds. That is the duration of placing the mirror's center spot sticker shadow on the collimator's center marker using the collimation screws.
