[FOOTPRINT]

Hi All,
First thanks for all you comments (M8+ngc253 post) and yes the F-3.3. will NOT work with the Canon, its only for CCD smaller chips, and does a fantastic job there, I found that the F-6.3 Focal reducer (meade/celestron) required spacing some 100mm to the Canon (I used the Celestron "T" adaptor) to get good focus, however the " MOGG" focal reducer works as is (with some Coma however).

Herwith some more Pix taken when one could see the night sky (a few months ago), M27- ISO-800-Exp.6 Min LX200 at F-6.3, M20- ISO-800 Exp.10 Min. at F-6.3 LX200 , both DF removed, processed in Photoshop.

cheers.....Jim
