Thanks for your feedback guys... I suspect this should have gone under equipment discussions. Indeed the FSQ-85 does look like a good match for the KAF8300 sensor. That said, the shallow wells of this sensor fill quite quickly, with many stars reaching saturation within the 10 minute subs used here.... shorter exposures being the likely fix. Field flatness and correction of the Baby Q looks to be excellent. Hard to believe just 85mm of aperture can perform so well, as even the fickle finger is resolved in the posted data. Well done Takahashi
