Thanks Peter. I didn't even notice the eggy stars on the right hand side, I'm showing my still newbishness to astro imaging

The GSO still shows good promise. Of course, you're very good at astro imaging, so the final result is at least partly due to your ability to coax out the best in the gear. Something like this would be a long term interest for me, although I need to be getting good images out of my current gear before I can justify upgrading, no matter how tempting it is.

The new (i.e. this one) 8" GSO RC's have had a lot of issues addressed.

I did not adjust the colimation as I was curious to see the "out of the box" performance.

With a few tweaks, I am sure the eggy stars on the right edge of the image (this explains why the left image edge is remarkably good: at the right's expense) would be much tighter.
