Fahim this was done without the flattener
And the flattener will work with scopes from 400mm to 650mm.

Keep at it Mate. I've been going through the same troubles here and am finally getting some reasonable results at 900mm FL.
Thanks mate it looks like i have to shove my 1140mm Saxon on the mount when it is clear next time

Thank you Mike but it is not that great (noisy area's, stars in the edges are no good) and i thought it was too colorful, but if you say it is good then it has to be good
The Lagoon i did with the field flattener has stars pinpoint in every corner, no more cropping for me
