WO-66ED tests
Hi All,
Bought a secondhand WO Petzval 66mm ED scope to see what FOV one can get (looking for a wider FOV than the ED80) wanted a Fluorite Scope as this would have also given me an idea of the difference between Ed and Fluorite, however I couldent get one (at my price).
The first Pix. was of the M42 area using the WO66 on its own, then with a MEADE f-6.3 focal reducer (its not very useful as theres too much Coma Etc.), the WO66 has a very flat field, sharp round stars right out to the edges, so it looks like it will be a useful scope on its own for imaging this size FOV.
Pix. were 6 x 6 Min. at ISO-800 ED removed, guided.
cheers.......Jim
