The images are a full frame and a cropped section. I haven't processed them at all apart from a slight increase in contrast. The field seems pretty flat with little vignetting. I will have to do proper flats to check. There doesn't seem to be any false colour with the infocus areas but there is when it is out of focus.
Look great to me. Really cool to see those roos.

How do you find the mechanics of the focuser? Smooth?

Thanks
