GSO coma corrector feedback

Hi all,
If anyone is interested,I have just quickly tried my new Bintel (GSO) coma corrector out between the clouds rolling in,and only observing star fields.
I was at the eyepiece for maybe 10mins in total,so this is a real quick and dirty.

My initial thoughts?

The sucker really works as advertised- for the wider field views with my 10" dob!

The corrector cleaned up the edges very nicely with my Pan24 (its bloody fantastic seeing pin point stars right across the field).This ep was the reason for the purchase, as the edge coma was driving me crazy.


I just dropped the corrector and the ep all the way home to the shoulder and used(no attempt was made to adjust corrector or ep at all).

I didnt get a chance to try any other eps.

Please keep in mind I would be easily impressed, as I have not used a coma corrector before, and am only just starting out in this hobby.


Anyway thats my 2 bobs worth-------
Cheers--Eric
