[Omaroo (Chris Malikoff)]

I'm a few days late here, but I've been experimenting tonight with the C8,the Megrez 80mm and the Saxon 120mm refractors. The camera is a Nikon D40. The C8 is out of the picture because at 2,000mm FL I can't get the whole object into the camera's FOV.

Pic 1) Second one taken through Saxon 120mm f/8 refractor and a natural frame size.

Pic 2) Here's one through the Megrez and taken with the Nikon D40 at 200 ISO @80/sec.

Pic 3) Again through the Megrez but with a 2x Barlow.

Given this, I think that I'll be using the Megrez & Barlow on the night as it seems to take the most appropriate object size in relation to the FOV and is a good deal smaller to lug around than the Saxon or C8.

Cheers
Chris
