Yes Ron I'm looking forward to getting out again in good conditions.
Going on what you say, my best shot will be trying the Pentax XW 7mm.
I don't expect to see too much detail with the 12" but maybe with the right conditions and using the DGM NPB filter and studying it a while longer next time I may be able to get a little more detail.
Here's hoping
The 12" is f5 by the way
