Here is my last image of mars. The image size is 640x480. I used a Meade 10" LX200 f10, 5x Powermate. The distance from the top of the Powermate to surface of the CCD is 20mm which gives a multiplying factor of 5.5x (see table from prevoius Posts). There for the effective focal length is 13750mm. Divide this by 50 and we end up with a magnification of 275x. In terms of image scale we end up with about 0.11 arcsec per pixel. Mars diameter in this image is 17.65 arcsec.
