Thanks Chris, And congratulations.. You'll love the ST8300 when you get it! I've been nothing but utterly impressed thus far. I've taken only 3 images with it, and thus far, image quality wise I think they are by far my best 3 images... Could it be that a mono camera and filters clearly beats an OSC? or more so that having smaller pixels, resulting in better image scale has had such a dramatic affect? Who knows.. Fact is this... I made a decision back in October of last year, and in hindsight, its perhaps the best decision I've made in astronomy thus far. Never has a piece of equipment impressed me so much... (albeit, this is more like 4 pieces of equipment bolted together... But you know what I mean..)
Cheers mate.. Looking forward to seeing what you can do with the ST8300 + your Taka-Monster rig!
