I can understand both sides to this argument and both Peter and Jase have merit in what they say..
I think this will have to be addressed in some way in the CWAS categories as all images are judged blind by David with no knowledge of how the data was acquired and what equipment was used..


I think a good solution would be to put a focal length to each category and maybe split deepsky images into two categories ?
Say.
Widefield is <300mm
Deepsky widefield 300mm to 1200mm
Deepsky Narrowfield <1200mm

This would help bundle setups and scopes that are more similar regardless if acquired via renta scopes or by the owner of the gear..
Also would open up opportunities for the more cash strapped imagers out there with small scopes like the ED80 or similar regardless of ccds or DSLR`s.
cheer Gary
