OK People,
to try the old scope I got the 10" f5 newt onto the G-11 last night and shot 10 images of M42. Total exposure time I haven't yet calculated (and will) but guess at about 20minutes, ranging between 1 minute and 4 minutes, at ISO1000, Nikon D100.
Compare this to the earlier image I posted, it is significant.
Worst thing is the 10" cost about 25% of what the 7" cost. Go figure.
