Fs-60 + 11002
I got sick of waiting for an adapter to show up to connect the Atik 11000 to the FS-60 Flattener so I set it up using my t-threaded adapters to get some idea of the problems I'll need to deal with using this combo. I gotta say, it's way flatter than I thought it would be on this large sensor, see ccdi plot, and I have round stars right to the edge of frame. Looks like there is some droop in the focuser which I'll try and sort out and maybe some reflection issues in the RHO shot but still, this tiny scope still amazes me.
Here's a couple of test shots simply stretched, straight out of maxim to get an idea of the field of view, and it's huge.
Pinpoint tells me FL is 375mm and Pixel Scale is 4.95. This t-threaded adapter is 2mm too long.
