If I can get any where near this quality, I will be VERY happy and won't chuck the Skywatcher out for a long time.

Thanks Chris...keep at it and better still get yourself a toucam or logitech webcam!

Thanks doug! I had a peak through the eyepiece as well before I imaged and could see CD and the major banding quiet easily...awesome!

Huge image scale and there is lots of detail showing.
Well done.

Thanks Matt for that... I did enlarge it to 200%. I like things big..
