I feel the FSQ106N is the better scope overall for imaging despite the
convenience of some of the FSQ106ED's features.

But in this case it would require 2 panels ideally. You got some terrific richness of colour though that is spectacular and really makes the image.

Then again that reducer on the FSQ106Ed is a beauty. I wonder if someone could make a reducer for the 106N. For that matter I wonder if the new reducer does in fact work on the FSQ106N?

What a load of cods wallop. Processing will lift, lower or transcribe the colour to whatever the imager requires. The same image captured with the same equipment and given to 20 people to process will result in 20 different images both in colour depth and end result.

Sorry Martin, a truely magnificent image with a huge field of view with superb detail throughout.
