now thats better.

You are right about the focus, the stars are a bit bloated over the diffraction spikes.

Get yourself a bahtinov mask, worth their weight in gold for focus.

I set my camera into Backyard EOS frame&focus and then press the 5x button when looking at a brightish star, focused in less than 30 secs, mask comes off, snap away.

Keep em coming, thats a great result so far.

Cheers

Chris
