Thanks Mike. Still finding it difficult to focus. Still learning and who doesnt want more megapixels but apart from that I am very happy with it. It has less tangle than a guide scope and the mount is easier to balance.

Thanks Gary. Unfortunately the extension screw snapped so until I can work out a way to get it out the reducer is stuck (maybe a drill?) . I am thinking of getting a C9.25 and reducer, then i will have all the focal length I can cope with, possibly more

The flat fields worked a treat, I should have taken them ages ago.
