Gday John,

I used the bahtinov mask that comes with the telescope for focus. I had used most of the adaptors that came with the camera as i didnt realise there was also backfocus. After reading up on it i realised mine was about 11mm out but decided on post processing the image anyway. Iv since corrected it(i hope).

I used pixinsight to process with a few final touches in photoshop.

Cheers,
Adam
