Thanks Marcus, yes considering it is only about 4 Jupiters X 3 Jupiters in size and with just 1120mm FL it is showing a lot of promise. As I have mentioned before, the seeing is better here than what I had in Neiwie, so when the good nights come I will be interested to see just what she can do. Having a scope that can provide a whopping 2.6deg diagonal field with the 16803 and high resolution close ups with a smaller finner pixel chip like this....makes me want two AG12's now

Yes the 75% lighter imaging rig looks to have made a difference too
