Ya, I noted the cardboard dew shield on the finderscope the first time I saw your video. But I think what Janokiss meant was dew in the diagonal mirror or focuser. But I don't think that was the case with me last night.... I think (and hope) that it was just beginner user error on the focusing.
hmm I see, so nebula's are best on dark nights with wide fields of view....
And the smaller mm eyepeices are good for planet detail when the moon is bright. (Neat add this to the list of things I learnt today

)
Damn... my neighbour had their backyard light on as well. My have contributed to my inagural downfall in celestial viewing.
