Thanks Mike!
...focal length comes to about 860mm. I find this goes well with my 300D giving me around 1.5p/sec. Have you got yourself a OTA for imaging yet? I think anything from 800 to 1000mm should give you great results like a 8" f/5 OTA.

Thanks Houghy..
yeap it was a really good night after the moon went and I was very happy with how well they came out until I scrolled around the image and saw all that bad coma in the corners...I`ll get stuck into it and fix this OTA soon! so no more unexpected coma and flex...
cheers and thanks for peeking..
