2 new things, though

that the stars now show a pink cone to their right can't be helped, right?
the cone being more prominent on the image edges than on the centre. it's to do with the lens and I can't tweak that with existing gear, right?

fine focussing with the controller showed a new "feature" tonight.
whereas before, pushing the left-right-up-down buttons almost immediately reacted and moved the scope into that direction,
tonight, the scope first performed a tiny backwards circle before it then "found" the direction it should move to.
I wonder whether that is not only an annoying feature but could also be a sign for correct tracking being jeopardized.
it only happened today.
I had not taken off the mount head during levelling.
all I did was fine tuning the latitude setting while the mount was fully loaded ...
