Well Mt Campbell Observatory Mark III has officially been commissioned
No stunner images yet
as I was just testing but still happy to finally take some images.
The fLI ProLine hasn't arived yet so I used my trusty little SXVH9. With my filterwheel in place I couldn't reach focus as the filterwheel motor is on the scope side of the wheel and hit the large 3" focuser rim before focus could be reached. So I removed the filterwheel and just stuck the camera in the two inch focus adapter. I couldn't use the scopes piece de resistance though, the huge 3" Keller Wynne corrector, as I don't have an adapter for it to attach to the SXV-H9. The SXVH9 has a small chip but the coma is still very strong in the images

Some interesting details and a link to the first light images are under each image. I am pleased with the image density achieved in short exposures - at F3.8.
Better images next time with the big FLI camera and corrector
